As above, in case anyone's got one in a box somewhere.

Mine's got what I suspect are the usual cracks and breaks around the front screw slot. It looks like I can fix it with some sheet metal and a bunch of epoxy, but the smart money is on just finding one that isn't broken.

Thanks,

I have several arm rest bases. I will have to look at just what I have. Do you need with or without the ash tray?
PS: I probably don't have the color you want, but they can be painted.

Hi Charrlie,

Without the ashtray.

I was hoping to get one that's already the right color, as I haven't had the paint color matched and mixed yet, but I suppose I'd take one that needed to be painted if the price was right (sorry for sounding cheap.– it's only because I am).

There's no hurry, as the car won't be driven much, now that we're getting into winter. I just figured I might as well start looking, so I could have a fix by Spring.

Thanks,

– Eric

You're not cheap. You're like me "frugal". Might take a day or so. I have them in different places, and I need to make sure I don't get rid of any I need.

My wife says when I pry open my wallet, moths fly out.

Of course, that's her justification for carrying around a crowbar all the time.

I think mine are the color you need since my '64 Valiant is the original medium turquoise. I just bought two re-chromed parts so I'll part with mine for the price of postage. I'll try to get pictures today.

Okay, cool!

My car's color code is K, if that's helpful.

Got it! Monday is a holiday so I'll go to the post office mid-week.
