    Picked up a gravel pan with the 3-piece apron still attached:

    Pulled off the doors and removed the interior. The floors are solid.

    But I want to replace this bracket:

    It's the passenger side upper door hinge bracket. It seems to be coupe specific. I'm not having any luck tracking down a coupe parts cars that someone is willing to cut this bracket off of for me. If anyone can help, please let me know. Thanks

  6. You might try Flat Top Bob at Owen's Salvage....he might have one. 800-798-2581
     
  7. Great score and you are lucky (or wealthy....) to find all these rare parts so easily.
    I'm specially interested what you're gone do with that Lincoln wheel and how it will look in the Merc.
    I have the same wheel in similar condition. And I also have a 50 Merc....

    Coupe specific hinge bracket? Perhaps I am missing something?
    I took a quick look in my garage and they look the same to me.
    I have both 4 doors and coupes
