I got tipped off a week ago that there’s a 65-66 Sport Fury in a junk yard across town. I’m going to grab my tool bag & head up there mid morning. If the car is indeed there & the guy will work with me I’m going to pull what I can off it. It’s spotty rain here & I’ll have limited tools. If anybody wants anything let me know. I’ll check back when I get there. If it’s in good shape & I can pull it I will sure try. Also depends on what price the guy wants for the stuff. It most likely will be a one & done. Too busy to make a second trip
 
The little plastic trim piece the screws up under the steering column. Left vent cable with a nice knob, far right hand turn signal lens with surround.
 
The instrument panel containing the heat gauge, gas gauge and amp meter. Four screws and cut the wires. Thanks

Arrrghhhh!!! Why cut the wires?? One of my pet peeves - "As long as I get what I want I don't care about the next guy" and destroy more than is grabbed. That's one of the reasons so many yards won't let anyone in to pull their own parts anymore, they do hundreds of dollars of damage for one 30 dollar part.

I has a good windshield. I told them I want it. They said they would pull it & deliver it tomorrow to my shop. So I signed the parts request sheet. I need one for my 66 300 Coupe. I pulled as much stuff asi could. Someone else had already got to it. This car was local. Right here in town. 383 big block. Console & buckets. I go by his house a lot. A few years ago he put the big 20 in rims on it. About a year ago I noticed it was sitting in his driveway & tires going flat. Then it disappeared. He sold it to the local yard. I should have stopped by & bought the car.
