They may not even have had parts at all, so I will modify my original statement to say "I thought they got parts from Chrysler". Anyway, the resulting discussion was constructive!
Jim, as usual you have gathered a lot of great information about mopar history.I was fortunate enough to be working at HaynesSmith Motor Sales in Marion ,Illinois while attending Southern Illnois Univ at Carbondale.
A lot of information came direct from Chrysler and a lot of unorthodox methods for modifications were shared but modified parts were not for liability reasons. Lee Smith made a lot of parts at his machine shop back then.I still have some of his unique parts.
With respect.
Bob
