I have a 79 Polara convertible for parts. 3832v, AC, drum brakes..It is very rusty, only good body parts are hood, r fender. doors are ok but some dents. Good glass, bumpers grille, etc interior is destroyed due to top leaking. Hate to part it out but i would take a lot to save it. Will post pics, but not much to look at.

If you can post the fender tag, too, that will be great. Thank you in advance for the pics.

@jim almond — Thank you for posting DL27L0D215703

Question: I am looking for the two bumper struts that connect the radiator support to the bumper (P/N 2962787 ) for one of my 1970 Polara 'verts.

—>How are yours? If either or both are in good shape, I am interested.

Here's what they look like (on a 1970 Polara that has them), and the 1970-1971 parts manual reference:

The site doesn't support videos. They take up way too much server space. You can post a video on You Tube and post a link here. I edited out your phone number. The sale rules state not to post personal information. It's for your own internet security. The rules also state you need photos of what you are selling.

drivers side is broke, but have both pieces. Small enough to mail if you want them. $25 for the pair, and ill pay postage?

If that is the part that I am looking for, and it is complete/unbroken, then I am interested. Do you have photos of what you have of the other side?

PS: our messages crossed one another, yes, I am interested in both. If you could include whatever bolts/washers came with them, that'd be super -- even if they are rusted, that'll show me what to get for replacement on my car. I'll send details via PM. Thank you!

From before I bought her, Regina has been missing the two bumper struts that connect 1970 Polaris and Monacos' radiator supports to their front bumpers (what are those struts, P/N 2962787 ? see here).

Thanks to @jim almond , this won't be the case for much longer. He is parting out another 1970 Polara 'vert, DL27L0D215703, and will be shipping her struts -- one is in good shape, the other needs welding but will be used too.

Call me sentimental, but I like that a little bit of 1/842 'verts (FY4) will live in another 1/842 (FQ3). Interesting provenance :thumbsup:

Did we know both of these cars ?
