I got my 65 Convert back from the last body shop just before winter
hit. They didn't quite finish working on it (another story), but when I
sent it it was pretty much stripped except for the suspension. It
rolled in on it's own. They took all of that off to do the work and
delivered it back to me in pieces. Now I'm wanting to reassemble some
of the suspension to get it rolling on it's own again and find I'm
missing a few pieces:

Rear brake drum (I have one-need another) Standard 8cyl bolt pattern.
Rear shock mounting plates (both) (the things the shocks and u-bolts
mount to).
U-bolts and nuts (4).
Rear spring front mount bolts and nuts (2 - one each side)
2 or 4 wheels (with tires?). Preferably in stock sizes, and matched
pairs if not all 4 matching. If tires are included that they match too.
They just need to roll, but equal size would be a big plus.

These are just to get it rolling - the brake drum and wheels/tires
don't need to be usable in a final car.

I'm in the Minneapolis, MN area so local would save me shipping but I'm
open to whatever.

Thanks!

66 Convert (waiting... waiting...)

What about your 66 parts car :-).

I would think just about anything would work (Grade 8 bolts,
Granada rear end stuff, rims/tires). Did you call Viking Auto?
