Sorry for the loss, looks like it was a nice wagon. Where are you located? How much for the complete front clip?

Glen, I believe Mike is in Modesto, Ca.

yes i do still have the two-door that's why this one is being parted... the clip from the wagon is going on the other car.... but i do have a complete clip from the two door (disassembled) make me an offer!

Ouch! Glad no one got badly hurt (from your earlier post). Here's a shopping list of what I could use. Hope I don't sound greedy, Country Sedans don't pop up that often. Especially in the great shape yours was in, and most of the bits probably still are in.

My tailgate is solid, but lacks the interior latching mechanism. So if you're willing to part out the tailgate, I really only need the innards. Would be much easier to ship. I'd consider the whole tailgate - of course, price and shipping cost will probably determine the outcome. I also have some rust in the rear floor where the tailgate hinge bolts in. If you have a solid piece back there and would be willing to cut out about the last foot or so, that would be great.

I also need the tailgate striker plates, both the pair on the body and the pair on the glass liftgate. Mine are worn to nubs.

Fuel sender unit. Mine is totally whack. Would consider fuel tank depending on cost and shipping, although I have a new tank so it would only be a spare or waiting for the next wagon.

Plus: original radio, instrument cluster, door panels - particularly the driver panel - if in red and white vinyl and good condition. Actually, I'd consider most any of the wagon-specific bits, or really anything on the car. I might consider a road trip from Colorado to California to pick up goodies if the deal is right. Hate to see stuff go to waste.
