Do you have the quarter panels ? I know where there is a new full quarter for $300.00

crazy j thanks for the offer, part of the purchase included a set of full quarters, outer rear wheel wells, trunk sides, and the original 307. The previous owner just got more than he could chew/and could agree on with his body man by the sound of it. He seemed to be originally wanting to do a full resto, and all the stuff he accumulated, he passed on to me. Very nice guy, seemed to want to see the car restored regardless of who did it. Do you know of any sources of parts in Alberta? will be looking to upgrade from the standard brakes and steering eventually.

jc I am guessing you are into 2+2s, new and helped rebuild a couple of 2+2 s for a guy in Victoria, named Barry. had a 350 and a big block 2+2. As I remember he had good contacts and many parts left over. If you would like I can contact him (or try to) and forward your name to him. Knowing him, he is most likely already well know to those who have 2+2s.

found this site while looking for part for my beaumont, thought it might prove fruitful as the guy looks to have a multitude of pontiac/beaumont/other parts. If one of the moderators can either move the link or tell me where to put it i will, just didn't know exactly where to post it .

We have had him on the site numerous times before. He basically just sells the cars as complete as he has them and doesn't part much out. Some members on the forum have purchased cars from him. Were you related to any Chambers that lived by Bittern Lake?

jmot64 you never know so i thought i would bring the site forward. I am not too sure if I am related to any Chambers there. I have whole sides of my family that I have not seen, or really know of. Last contact with the family as a whole was when my grandfather was alive , his name was Garvin Chambers. If they have aname like that in their past than most likely am related. Do you know them?

Carl forgot to thank you for straightening out my pics. appreciated.

What parts are you in need of. I may know where you can find some stuff, close to Edmonton.

thanks for the offer....most obvious part I can think of is the drivers door moulding. The car is a custom , so I am not sure but I would think that the moulding would be for that model. I will try to get a close up of it if that helps. Other than that I am not too sure, I haven't had the chance to take a list of what exactly I need. I would like to convert it to power disc (front) brakes in the future. I don't imagine the drums are all that friendly in an emergency!
