Went to the junkyard today and scored some parts!
I found an ochre 68 Custom in the junkyard today and got a bunch of parts off it. It must not have been there too long as it had alot of useable parts on it. Shown below are: an entire chrome windshield trim set, driver side chrome wing window,chrome headlight buckets, an original GM radio, a pair of stainless wipers in good shape, and what's not shown is the windshield that I'm going to install in my 67, and a high hump with rubber boot for a 4 speed.
Later, I went back to find some things I was actually looking for and stumbled upon a Camaro tach and clock! All this for $70 bucks!

Good deal!
If you go back you might want to see if it still has the e-brake cover  Matthew

I forgot to add that part. I got that as well. The down side is that the p.o. drilled a hole in it for a toggle switch. Other than that it's still really glossy black! I'll probably try to have the hole welded up, not sure yet.
