Have you tried contacting Fred Walker at; WalkerAutoPride@aol.com Fred has many cars, parts, and a nice 1951 Frazer Hard Top.

Tried Fred awhile back for some convertible parts but I'd have to buy the whole car....not going there. And we have spoken to other potential sources but no luck yet.

Also found two sources for the '51 T/L lenses last year but not at $600/pair for clumps of plastic......and shipping extra you know.  Someone shipped me a very used single lens a long time ago but didn't believe in packaging material and when I got the lens it was all in many tiny little pieces.

It'll be difficult for my two '51 Hardtops to ever be nice as original again because of the parts unavailability and we still need parts for the convertible...like a top bow but I'm not buying a whiole parts car and have it shipped 1500 miles for just the one part needed.

I did acquire some garnish moldings from Fred that were very bad but better than none at all and they have been stuck in a semi-local chrome shop for a year now; we're going to go retrieve them soon as the shop answers the phone because it's a 70-mile drive.  Juist cannot find a decent chrome shop and I've tried quite a few.

Did you try Adam Harder for the window frame?

Doc, have you located tail light lenses?  I have one if you need one. It says FRF on it. I'm guessing that means Right side. It isn't perfect, but it has never been on a car and is still very red with no oxidation or checking. It has a few scratches which can perhaps be carefully buffed out.  I'm bringing it to the National. I'd like $400, but I'm entertaining offers.  I know that is pretty steep, so I'm open to negotiations.  I can get you some photos if you like.
