    I guess I under estimate the need some feel to get a brand new part for their 30 year old cars.

    I just don't get it.

    If you saw my Premier you'd understand why it needs original parts. That's why i'm chasing down good stuff and paying good money for the right bits. I had to buy that heater switch NOS, never seen a good secondhand one.

    Here is a taste.

    Very low kM (108,000), fully loaded from new. From what I can tell there wasn't many desirable available options that weren't ticked on the order form. All I can tell it didn't get of the desirable options were:

    Twin exhaust;
    Sunshine roof;
    Rally rims or Polycast rims (got 6" standard rims though);
    Over-riders;
    Cloth inserts.

    It has a dealer fitted Pioneer Radio cassette and a dealer fitted rear sway bar.

    The only non-original bits on it that I have to replace back are:

    1974 HQ/HJ Rochester and aircleaner (I now have both);
    Front lower balljoints (I have 2 x NOS complete lower control arms to put in);
    Mudflaps (still need NOS examples for 3 corners);
    Muffler (exhaust is original bar the muffler);
    Sealed beam inners (has had H4's fitted, so need minor harness fix to repair);
    Master cylinder (have a 3/74 original to rebuild for it).

    If anyone has NOS HJ-HZ sedan/wagon or WB Statesman rear mudflaps and wants to swap for a NOS pair of rears for HQ (all), HJ-WB ute, van, coupe or HJ-HZ Statsman let me know. I also have 2 x fronts NOS for the same side, want to swap one to get the other side.

    Byron I have 1 92021178 and 1 2820346 and 12820347 here(new but packaging is damaged but are still in good order. I think the pair are rear commercial ones but the other is a right front(92021178). Any use to you? If the rear pair are commercial I would want to keep them.
