1967-68 Superior trim, W/S, fuel tank, carb

[Harry Evans]

Hello,
I'm looking for all the rocker trim from behind the front wheels to the back bumper on both sides as seen here:

Also, looking for a windshield - I can drive to Columbus and get a new Professional-sized one for $600, so if anyone has one either nearer or cheaper...
I need a fuel tank and while I can get a new one for $500, I need the neck and probably the sending unit as well, so if you have a tank, or neck or sending unit, or both around, let me know.
If anyone is parting out a Cadillac with floors that might fit, I have no drivers side floor. Actually, there are probably no floors under the other bits and pieces, but I'll deal with that when I get to it.
Finally, I'm looking for a Carb for the car - the one on it is from a high altitude 1974 Cadillac for some reason, so if you have one that is closer to sea level and closer to 1968, that would be great.
Actually, what I could really use is a hacked up camper conversion that has been in a dry desert climate for years.
The car is a rough 1968 Rescuer.

As trim remains consistent from '65-'68 Superior, I can help with some of your list.

Gas tank neck and sending unit $75 + shipping. Not guaranteeing sending unit is good and may need rebuilt, probably fine as-is though.

Skirts are not on parts car but I believe are inside of it. If so, $500 + shipping for entire molding set you've specified. (If skirts aren't there, prices on individual pieces will be assessed by condition. Rocker moldings alone will be around $250.) Lower quarter moldings are not perfect and will require gentle massage. Rocker moldings ship in 6" PVC 10' length (additional), which will also incur oversize charge.

Highly doubtful you'll find anyone willing to separate skirt trim from skirts, so you know. The guy that was selling used windshields for $450 is out, after a paid professional glazier broke his last two removing them. Someone on a different hearse forum just last week got a new windshield through Pilkington for $510. Likewise, gas tank isn't worth nickel & diming chance on a $300 used one (pre-shipping) not needing work where you end up having more in it than a new one would have cost in first place.

the gas tank and sending unit are the standard tank out of a 58 caddy. the sending unit new is only 85 bucks, the last one I had rebuilt was 125. remember we all pay for our education some how. that one was mine, I'll pass on what I learned for free. used glass is not worth messing with for a number of reasons. but the price quote I have for that one out of Pinkerton is 400 with 100 bucks freight. floors can be gotten here
http://www.c2cfabrication.com/store/about_us.php for the 68. I'm not sure if the one mike is parting out has any lower trim on it at all. but I think he still has the filler neck. trim would be a find it were you can and as Attila said it ain't going to be cheap. not all of them had it. if you look up the carburetor number one can find them on e-bay or do the junkyard search. just getting on off a 68 would be a plus. if you need I can swing by and get the number off mine.

The trim on the rear quarters is different. This coach is quite solid in the floor pan through out. See the difference?

Sending units are easily revived. Soak the rheostat in a paint can of carb cleaner for 20 min. Be carefull not to imurse any rubber parts.
