    If you've never had any experience with a wagon, your going to find a lot of parts and pieces are specific to a wagon. This makes it hard to find parts obviously. Sometimes it is easier to find a complete parts car. Good luck in your search, you've started in a great forum!...Longroofs Rule!

    I messed with a 72 once back in the 90s. Sold it before paint .parts I found where few and far .
    Lucky this one only needs 2 headlight extension and I found a passenger side on a chevelle forum I'm on .
    Car needs more dent repair and some rise cut out .
    I dont think it will be a hard one

    Sounds like you got a good grasp of the situation. Good luck with getting your wagon up and going! (Pictures Please!).... Longroofs Rule!

    Depending on what you need (or are looking for), most '68-'72 Chevelle (2 and 4 door) parts should work. The main difference is from the rear doors back. For aftermarket parts suppliers, try Year One, Classic Industries, National Parts Depot, etc. or a Chevelle owners forum. Good luck!

    My reference to the '68 - '72 was meant mainly for mechanical parts. Yes, door panels from a four door should work, along with most everything else from a four door.
