Chevelle parts will work for everything you have listed except the front marker lights and the front turn signal lenses. It took me 4 1/2 years to find a NOS set of turn signal lenses. I think the Chevelle dash pad is the same but I know the 68 Lemans and GTO pad will work.

I got the 327 V8 emblems for the fenders from Whitey. Haven't seen a set of marker lights for sale as of yet. Guess they are going to be pricey.

Asked the guy i bought the car from if he still had them. He said no, he planned on just filling the holes with bondo, LOL.  

Really glad i picked up this car. He also had planned on cutting the rain gutters off. LOL



As for repo parts, i prefer original when i can find them.

Greg.

Hey Greg, I will have a look tonight for the top front window molding. As for the arm rests, are you looking for the bases and pads or just the pads? Cheers, Whitey

This was posted about beaumont interchange awhile back . Has any one tried a corvette or cutlass side marker light in a 68 Beaumont ?

 

This is a 68 corvette front marker light.

the side marker lights are the same as a 68 corvette, corvair,  (skylark and cutluss 442 front only)

bumpers and bumper guards are the same as 68 chevelle

dash and pad, gauges, gauge bezels, glovebox door, glovebox liner and knobs are Gto lemans and tempest

 Actually I need all of the rear window chrome as well. Thought i had it listed above.

 

 

Also looking for the left and right side headliner brackets. Don't know why anybody would just throw away all these pieces. Crazy.

 

Badges are ready to go.

Not really, alot of the stuff interchanges with Chevelles.

Greg, I may have extra rear window chrome also. Are you staying in Borden for another year?

My brother Eric (FCS Tech) is posted from Borden to Gagetown this summer.

 Thanks,

A little bit of model paint and a tooth pick worked very well.

 Hi Greg

 If you could update this list I can see what I have. I know some of my parts are in storage away from home but I do have some here.

 The front and rear side marker lights are still available from GM. The retainer brackets are in the aftermarket. Check the Corvette suppliers.

 A lot of dash pads you will find will need recovered.

I have a NOS rear licence plate bracket that was the replacement GM part for the earlier version. It is a little bit narrower.

I have front signal light lenses. OE Beaumont only.

Reproduction arm rest pads are the way to go. Mint original fronts are really hard to find. NOS will run you about $400 to $700 a pair.

 Rear ashtrays are hard to find that are perfect. I think I have a one or two sets left.

I'm about 90 minutes west of Borden.
