Okay, who here has a stash of Series 1 parts? I need a heater, rearview mirror, original floor mats, tunnel mat and a plethora of other small bits. Everything is for a '58 107.

I heard there is a junkyard full of Series I's somewhere in VA.

Well, doubt you will find many of the listed items locally. Though the PA club might be helpful.

Nah. I'd probably find the parts, say Jonathan are these the parts you're looking for? He'd say no, then he'd go pick them up! :)

Yea, try Ike or Timm. Dunsfold in the UK has a fair ammount of odd Series 1 bits as well.

BTW Ike Goss = pangolin4x4.com Thanks, I've been talking to him today. He has about half of what I am looking for.

I find that hard to believe, although he probably knows which room of his house a paricular part is in. :)

So you can't sell stuff on there but you can request to buy on there?

Series 2&3 is still pretty common. What are you looking for?

Series 1 stuff is a completely different ballgame. I dont think RN offers much(if any)

Mostly UK based but nothing to lose by posting your wish list on here.

I have seen threads on RN to buy items. They are all respectfully done and usually have a disclaimer like "I did not see any of this for sale on RN site etc.etc."

I don't think they take those down if they don't carry the parts. Worth a try and if they think you overstepped bounds they delete your thread - nothing to lose. Good luck.

Yeah, already tried Lanny. He doesn't have any Series I parts.... or he's hoarding them.

Try Rocky Mountain? Dunsfold/TLR? I know Dunsfold has been making some S1 parts for a while now. There was a guy on Guns&Rovers that said he had a "warehouse" full of parts and partial rovers. Lives over by King of Prussia Penn. .

hoarding. :( When your own website touts that you have barns full of spare original parts, I'm pretty sure that's considered hoarding.

Ummm...we need to find this place immediately! Any leads on location?

Jonathan - I'm taking it you sold the Willys and now have a Series I project in your garage???

Bobeck was joking, but there is rumor of a guy west of Dulles with a bunch of Series trucks rotting away. I think Charles knows about them.

And yes, the Willys moved on and I got a '58 107. It's in the Truck Builds section.

I tried looking for this once coming back from Rausch but couldn't find it. It's supposed to be in/near Lucketts. Maybe fireman Dave can chime in as I think he was the one who told me about it.
