    Lotta rare stuff on an early car such as that.. Few that cross my mind would be the rear doors, or at least windows with the opening rear quarter lights.

    Rear lights without reverse.

    All door and window handles, trunk release. Upper steel door panel pieces with the wrap around dash pad.

    That nose section that Soren wants is easily the toughest to find... If it is only half there, its probably worth saving.

      This "smaller nose section", does that mean the size of the grill-areas? Or are we talking about something else?

      What year did this "smaller" version run up to?

        Yes, it refers to the grill-areas. This nose was on the B16 120/130's from 1957 when introduced, up to the introduction of the B18 1962-models.

        Actually the fenders also had a slight difference, since the indicator-lights where smaller and all white glas.

        On the "outside" of the front/fenders nothing else was different, only the hole-size for the grill/indicator-lights..

    Hello Gil,

    Is the '58 in original shape? I would like to buy the front-body (if you know what I mean..)
    If it's original, the grill-opening is smaller than the newer models and is actually so difficult to find here that I wouldn't mind paying the shipment and so for it.. I live in Denmark, Europe.

    The complette crossmember (?) -including the wishbones and all is also very interessting!

    Actually a lot of the parts in a '58 is interessting, how complete is the car?

    Do you have option for making some digital photos?

    Thanks,
    Soren

      The car has sat in the woods of New England for 30+ years. Unfortunatly that renders almost every body panel rotted beyond believe. The front cross member with wishbones could be removed and used. How would I get it across the pond??

        Put it in a bottle and seal it up!! :-)

        No, here I nead your help I think.. From here, Denmark to US I would use the postal service. UPS or the like cost a fortune! Maybe a little disasempling would ship it easier and to loose weight I can skip the brakedrums and spindles.
        Just to make a check-list:
        -cross member
        -upper and lower wishbones (all fittings included)
        -brakedrum anchors (?)(complete with brakeshoes and cylinder even if they look bad)


        Even if it sounds crazy, how bad is the front attacked from rust? If the frontplate is just reasonable it's still better than nothing...(the grill-holes?)

        How does trunk look? -the licenseplate-light and handles?

        Is it a 122S? -if original a B16B engine? -the carbs twin SU's with manifold interessting too - if "just" a B16 with single carb. -how does airfilter and carb. looks?

        Thanks,
        Soren

    Hello Gil: What part of the country do you live in? I am always on the lookout for 6 volt parts and anything that will see my 1960 Amazon-S stay original.

      Hi Cam,
      I live in Connecticut on the east coast of the United States. How about you?

        Hi Gil: I'm in Canada, the province of Ontario, just north of upper New York State, around Massena. I'll be in Gettysburg this coming weekend, but I guess I'm too far away to take advantage of any of the larger parts you mentioned. How about 6 volt switches, voltage regulators, bulbs or small easily removed parts? Is your 122 an original North American imported vehicle? Do you have any unique accessories, especially for the early 6 volt Amazon? Thanks.

          Hmm well the cars been sitting in the woods for 30 years. I'm going to Brooklyn NY this saturday. I can load up the back of my 945 with parts if you'd like to pick them up LOL. I don't think there are any unique six volt parts on it. All I can think of are the lights (brake and trunk) some switches, which may not function, a couple of starters a generator(probably siezed) and maybe the fan blower motor. The chasis # is 94092 and it was made in Goteburg Sweden.
          What's in Gettysburg?
          Cheers,
          Gil
