Re: IML: 1962 Imperial trunk lid handle - finding parts / vendors on the site

[Kenyon Wills <imperialist1960@xxxxxxxxx>]

The handle that you seek is a PART.

Go to the PARTS section on the club website, and look
in the SALVAGE YARDS section for the names of the
people that you'll want to be contacting when
searching for such an item.

I don't generally provide direct links because the
club wesite is (I think) easy to use and folks should
learn how it works if they're new, or get off their
duff and utilize their resources if they've been here
awhile. 

For example, a trip to the spotters guide for 1960
yeilds this photo of what you seek:

Nothing new under the sun, just new to you, so we
probably have it already listed - ya just have to look
for it....
