Vintage Cars: Body Parts, mopar parts, chrysler 300


Question
I need to find a left front fender with cornering lamp for a 1971 Chrysler 300.  Any Idea where I might find this.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Answer
The first place I'd look is Hemmings.  If you've never seen their magazine, it's a HUGE listing of cars and parts for sale, usually 500-600 pages.  They also have a website, but I'd start with the magazine, available at any good newsstand or book store (just look for the light brown cover with dark green lettering).  There will be individuals with parts for sale, as well as companies specializing in fenders, or Mopar parts, etc...  Keep in mind that's the same fender used on a Newport or New Yorker, so it should bolt right up to your car; both Newport & New Yorker were available with the same cornering light as used on the 300.  The Imperial fender was slightly different in shape, and that had a different cornering light, so an Imperial one won't work.  Good luck in your search!
