There was a period when Bob's guy who was making his molding products was not doing any more for him because he had another order that was easier to fill because it was walk in tubs that was only one mold as I understand and it is easier to make than his moldings and he makes more profit on...

They have a huge backlog of orders and Doug, the owner, doesn't seem to grow the staff to be able to fulfill the orders in a timely manner and he gives excuses that folks that are fussy and capable enough to make the door panels just as new are very hard to find and train to do them ( and that...

After 7 years of waiting for my door panels from SMS I really got fed up with all the misleading promises and just lies and took action. I was concerned about the quality of the product if I complained too strongly to get what I ordered in a reasonable period of time. But then I realized that...

Here is Herb's color chart enlarged version - looks like #1182 is the most likely red interior color for 1966............. https://www.herbsparts.com/documents/HerbsParts_InteriorPaintColorChart.pdf

For me, there is only one source to definitely try first: Herb's Parts: HERBS PARTS INTERIOR PAINT, Interior Paint, PAINT If they have the color available for your vehicle, it will surely be a good match. They are a subsidiary of AMS Obsolete and have a good reputation in supplying accurate...

Quite a few years ago now, I watched as Doug, the owner, systematically bought out every company that was associated with having stored nos automobile interior materials or made products like seats, vinyl roofs, etc. The first one he bought that I recognized was Original Auto Interiors out of...

SMS has been very good in terms of shipping basic materials like vinyl and cloth that are either original nos of if that isn't available, they will make it up for you unless they happen to have some extra material that they made in the past in stock. Sometimes they also take a lot of time to...

Keep in mind guys that Bob is able to only do so much in terms of getting much volume from his reproduction guy and right now that emphasis is on the seat backs and hinge covers. But if you just want to let him know that if he is looking for volume buys of the next item, it is probably a good...

As above, it would be most effective if he actually places an order as well.

I believe, @ayilar, that it would be most effective if your request came via you directly instead of me just so he mentally keeps in mind how many different customers would like them. All 1969 - 1971 two door models with the 23 roofline (except Imperial) would use the identical C pillar...

I decided to call Bob Baker today to get an update on the availability of products from his previous supplier of reproductions of the plastic parts. It seems his previous supplier has focused his attention on higher volume customers who use his reproduction services and generate more revenue...

Honestly, I am really not sure anymore. He has lost his supplier that makes the plastic parts replacements as Chris noted but I am not in the loop about why all the dash pads are not going forward either. I know there was a supply chain issue regarding the rubber supplies used in making them...

The only good option in my view................................All Products scroll down.......................... Check with Bob Baker, the owner, about when this product will be available again. Everything else looks inadequate to me at least.

I called them twice and spoke to two different ordering guys. Neither one said there was any likelihood of them ever being reproduced again. At the present time, any usual order of interior products, vinyl roofs, etc has a wait time of 8 months, so getting them to produce something...

I will try and bug them about doing them again - can't hurt to try. It really isn't easy to make 50 year old rear seats look new again without remaking them. Thanks for confirming that I wasn't remembering incorrectly.

OK, thanks! I was hoping that Legendary also made the back seat covers too but it looks like they have discontinued making them but I do see they still make back seat covers for the 71s......................go figure.

They look really nice too! Did he make the seat covers or were they from Legendary or ???

Below is an on-line post regarding installation of the circumferential rubber covered part of the switch that should help guide installation of the switch into the wheel itself. There are two wires, one at each end of that switch - one that uses a phillips short screw to install the ground lead...

That is really impressive as well. Glad to know there are two very good sources nearby. I appreciate the reply. So it appears he did the ceiling in the wagon as well - very well done too!

My upholstery shop is just outstanding and real close to you in Victorville. The shop is Robbins Upholstery and he did 2 headliner conversions for me - one for my 1969 Chrysler Town & Country wagon and the other my 73 Dodge Crestwood station wagon. Both headliners were originally perforated...
