Hi, just acquired this '66 vert from my buddy who past away about 1.5yrs ago..figured I'd build it in his honor. Anyone have any leads on a rear seat, doors, rear view mirror and chrome top latch pieces that screw on to the windshield frame? I'm located in NJ but would pay for shipping as well, Thanks

Awesome. I'm supposed to have a Ruby '66 vert in my future too, we'll see, I'm still waiting.
Are you going to start a thread on it?

So I found the original doors off my car, found a rear view mirror but needs a lens. Also found a rear seat back and bottom from a 66. Still looking for a deal on these catches below for doors and top, Thx.

Dude! I just finally got my '66 vert, same as yours, and I had a wake-up call when I found the paint code label, Poppy Red. I'm sure yours is the same, sorry for the confusion with my above post, I really thought the car I was getting was Ruby.
And I'm sorry about your buddy, I also got mine from a buddy, but he's still with us, just wanted this thing out of the garage.
