R3 Forward Posted December 18, 2019 Report 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. Thanks, Edited December 18, 2019 by R3 Forward typo
JLBKY Posted December 19, 2019 Report 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
R2W55 Posted December 20, 2019 Report 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

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
R2W55 Posted January 28, 2020 Report 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
