R3 Forward Posted December 18, 2019 Report Share Posted December 18, 2019 (edited) I need a pair of the aluminum end plates for the dash as well as the center console plate where the heater and air vent adjustments are. Also looking for a functioning lock mechanism for the glove box. If anybody has these part and is willing to sell them please contact me at r3forward@gmail.com or call Jim at 480-544-5025.

JLBKY Posted December 19, 2019 Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 I have a used Right/Passenger Side that I'd sell. If interested, I'll send you a photo and a price. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R2W55 Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 I am also looking for a working, locking glove box latch. Seems no has a good one for sale I have found out they are also used on 60 Larks. I have found a similar but not exact item on a mid/late 60 Mustang. https://www.cjponyparts.com/scott-drake-glove-box-latch-1967-1968/p/HW1663/ If you try the mustang one let me know how it works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at them and they are close but the one we need does not have that ridge on the top so don't think I want to temp fate and buy one to try. I'm not that desperate (yet)... BTW, I found a lot of mustang latches for sale on eBay as well. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R2W55 Posted January 28, 2020 Report Share Posted January 28, 2020 Jim, I bought one of the Mustang ones and it is VERY close. I will have to notch the top of the glove box hole (only the fiberglass, not the padding) to accept the ridge. I will also have to drill new holes on the flanges as the pony ones are too far out. The catch will also have to be moved a little. The key part of the cylinder is very close to the original so I can slide the 'chrome' piece on the end over it will fill the padding hole very nice. I haven't actually done the mods yet but they look fairly straight forward. What is really nice about the mustang part is it is new works like silk. I'll re-post after the mods are done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
