When Year One didn't have a part I was looking for, they recommended Stephens Performance to me. 256-247-1332.

I've also heard that Mitchell Motor Parts has virtually anything for a Mopar, but rumor has it that they can be difficult to deal with. Don't know personally. The vendor I talked with at a local show was nice enough. www.mmpar.com 706-337-4606

You may also want to try Wild Cat Mopars out of Oregon or DVAP.com (Desert Valley Auto Parts) They seem to have quite an array of MoPars ripe for the picking.

Mitchell's is not only difficult, but they are expensive as hell! The only things I have and would get from them is factory decals. They use to be 10 minutes away from me before their shop burned down and they moved to Georgia I believe. An example, the want over $50K for a Hemi coded car minus the Hemi, transmission and interior. I've seen them have $90K Hemi coded shells for sale before.

DVAP is one and Texas Acres is another big Mopar junkyard.

I'm transitioning to a 4-speed and I need one linkage part (not sure exactly what its name is) It's the linkage bar that goes from the Z-bar to the clutch fork. the rest of the linkages, bushings, etc I have, just can't find that one piece. If you have one, I would definately be interested in it.

Mopar performance used to sell a complete kit that had that rod, the insulator, washer and nut. You are right about Mitchell's I saw a guy shell out $550 for a crappy 71 cuda grille at a show only because he didn't want to pay Mitchell's price of $1200 for a NOS part. He said it was the only part he needed to finish off his 71 convertible and he was tired of looking thru junkyards. Shortly there after my oldes son bought a 71 Barracuda for $1500.

Hi there man..The auto body parts from junks are not really that good. Just buy new parts on discount sites. There are a lot of online stores out there that offer big discounts.
