You should remover EVERY piece of trim from that car and Ebay it. Those trim pieces on either side of the rear license plate are always bad, so people are always looking for them.

Steve Barcak is looking for 265 engines.
I assume you mean a Pontiac 265? What the heck is it doing in a '60?

I have no idea who thought it a good plan to drop a Pontiac 265 in there.
I am amazed anyone (Barcak) would be wanting these. It's available if he wants it.

SteveP- good advice on the trim- will do.

If the headlight bezels are decent, you'll be surprised what they will bring.

Are the interior knobs in good shape too? If you have the time and the space, 60 Bonneville parts are decent property to sell.

Car is still available, now owned by me instead of the friend I was previously advertising for. Front bumper, headlight bezels, rear bumper trim, brake pedal assembly now gone. Speedo, taillight assemblies, radio, dash top, remote mirror, rear axle tentatively spoken for.

Still have good straight hood & decklid, frt & rr seats, all 4 doors, rear bumper, front fenders, inner fenders, grille, core support, stainless, rear glass, steering column, good gas tank, front suspension... and other misc available. Willing to cut off quarter panels or whatever other sheet metal you like.

Can deliver stuff to Englishtown swap meet in May, Lead East on Labor Day wkend, or (possibly/hopefully) Hershey in Oct.

No A/C, unfortunately. About the only options were radio, courtesy lights, power steering.

• Still have very good seat cores, have been reupholstered but will need it again: $175.

• Gas tank, minor thumb-sized dent in rear edge, spotless inside: $90

• Rear quarters off body, very solid/straight, nice: $200 EA

•*Straight hood, minor surface rust: $100

• Straight Bonneville trunklid, underside is excellent: $100

• Front grille & pans, very straight, no rust on sheet metal, $125.
