You are going to be hard pressed to find anything in a P or H body that is
still in good shape. While I have never tried swapping P body latches into
H body Latches, I have replaced a good number of both and I keep my eyes
open for them. I haven't found a good set for a long time, maybe 5
anyone got a shifter rod for a GLH. I have NOS versions of all the rods
except for the first one that attaches to the shifter. I checked with local
dealer today and was advised that it is not available... anywhere.
I am going to SDAC. If you have one and are going, just let me know.
The Shelby Lancer Springs were slightly less drop (3/4) and had the 205 60
15 Gatorbacks and Formula GPs. The 60 series tires give you a lot more
cushion than 55 or 50 series. But even with that, some of the auto magazine
writers of the time were critical of the less than supple ride. I
Count me in.

Brian, it sounds like the oldest trick in the book. Give you an expensive
price (because they really didn't want to do it) and get it in to the shop
if you say yes, disassemble the car and then double the price to get it back
together. They figure if you say yes to $3,500 on a 20 year old car,
Or of course you can have a Shelby Lancer with the DX 77 still working.

automobile, 100 watts of power, and 10 speakers. Still great sound.

Paul, for $200 if the tires are good, go for it. The center caps alone go
for $60 to $75 on Ebay for the SC emblem caps, $50 for the DODGE caps. The
pumpers sell for $200 a set with caps if you can find them, then you have to
pay for shipping which can be between $75 and $100. And have you
with 60 series
tires (Shadow ES for instance)

You won't need any wiring other than the plug on the back of the navigator,
the rest of the wiring from your harness to the plug is actually buried
