I am about to begin stripping a 1968 Parisienne 2+2 convertible. It occurs to me that someone might want to purchase all of the 2+2 equipment together in order to "make" a 2+2 in appearance anyway.
I have the unique 396 fender emblems and 2+2 emblems which all need paint. I have the full set of fender louvres. I have the automatic centre console and shifter. I have the dash plate with no opening for PRNDL. I have the interior door panels in restorable condition with the 2+2 door emblems. Basically I have everything except that I am keeping the bucket seats for myself.
I have Ave lots of other stuff from this car. The thing that has slowed me down- apart from being busy and suffering from procrastination from time to time, is that I don't really know what the value is of some of these parts are. And I understand that there is a rule about putting prices on items for sale for good reason. With that in mind, I've thrown a price for the whole lot listed above, at $1200. I hope I'm in the ballpark. I've asked around a little bit about values but not a whole lot. If my prices out of line, feel free to let me know. If anything, I want to make sure anyone from this website gets a good deal on any parts they get from me, and that Canadian Poncho also gets it's cut. So if you want to try a lower price and make a contribution to Todd, that's great. Or I can do it from my end. My main concern will be to get the things I need out of this parts car and pass everything else on to others at a reasonable price so everybody's happy. Thanks for helping me out with pricing. I am in the Vancouver suburbs area.

Yes. I can appreciate that. It would never happen if the vehicle could be titled. Had to buy it as a parts car. Previous owner tried to get registration as a salvage vehicle but was unable. I don't have all the details. But I do have the tilt steering column, power bucket seats with headrest, HD radiator, 4 link 12 bolt, power windows, big block pulleys, brackets and accessories- as well as some other things.. all of which I will keep for one of my other 427 cars. Original engine is gone on this one.
If anybody needs fenders, bumpers, convertible specific parts- including working mechanism, glass, frame, dash, hood, trunk lid, fender skirts, drum brakes interior panels, lights, bezels, trim etc..... just let me know! I think the quarters and trunk pan are borderline usable too. Or as one fellow commented... they're not terrible. I'll eventually get the stuff up on Kijiji or Craigslist. I have quite a bit of '67 Parisienne extras as well.

Thanks for bringing that to my attention Scott! I didn't realize that. Time flies! I actually joined shortly after I bought Elroy's convertible. I figured I'd had it restored by now. But all I've done is buy more cars and parts!
I'm not far out of Vancouver. If there are any little parts that you really need and are easy to ship, just let me know.

I'm keeping the buckets. I do have an extra set but I'm stockpiling to eventually do resto on 2 cars. Sorry but I must hang on to (hoard) those buckets!
