HELLO MERLIN My original message (below) was returned to me as undeliverable so I thought this might work.   Hello Merlin, Sorry about not getting back to you sooner!  I get tons of Patrol Club messages on my E-mail and yours didn't jump out at me. As well, I don't have any fenders (other than the ones on my '66, of course), but there are other body parts:  1. complete front clip2. windshield frame and glass3. rear doors4. dash board5. both side doors - these are rare "half doors" that allow detachment of the window frame from the rest of the door. 6. hood7. 2 pieces of rear (side) window glass - not sliders8. 2 original front bucket seats and 2 rear folding bench seats - all need upholstering All this stuff needs paint and some TLC - but is certainly not "junk". Why they painted some of them that ugly green is beyond me! There are also F/R axles, differentials, transfer cases, transmissions, carburetors, radiator, steering gear, springs, manifolds, gas tank, heads/block and a complete engine. Lots of little bits and pieces like brake cylinders, rims, distributor caps and various smaller body panels. Really the only stuff I don't have are the tub, frame, fenders and hardtop. These were all too far gone to repair. Now, if you are really in need of something please give me a call at (250) 337-8882. The only thing is my '66 will need parts eventually and some of this stuff is, in the longterm, pretty valuable. Maybe we can work out a trade or two?  Kinda like hockey cards when we were kids, isn't it? Anyhow, its just good to know there is another Patrol owner in the Province! By the way, I live in Merville - which is about halfway between Courtenay and Campbell River. I do get over to the mainland occasionally, as well. Scott
