Can you send me a picture of one and do you have an old one you could spare me to look at for evaluation purposes and to make mold from if we go that far. If you loan it to us S&N RE-POPS will reward you with a free part when we run our first batch. First we need to look at our cost and investigate the market to see if it makes since for us to make them. So if you have a part to send me that is great but if you can start with a picture that is good... Please send the picture directly to my email it is check more often than this site. Thanks in advance, steve S&N RE-POPS 101 Yale Blvd. Kokomo, Indiana 46902 765-437-2929 68.dart@insightbb.com |

Hi Steve, I have notified John (overpowered) who is the member here who REALLY needs the marker light bezels to finish up his VERY nice 1970 Dart Swinger. I told him about your thread here, so he should be posting here soon and maybe you two can work out the details on this project. Thank you VERY much for your consideration on this part. Your company and many others like it, are the future for our beloved old cars, as the NOS parts supplies are shrinking at an alarming rate, so without the reproduction parts that we so badly need, our hobby will soon be lost forever.......and that's just NOT a nice thought.  Richard |

Thank you so much for the heads up on your friend. Also thanks for your kind words about our efforts to help. My son and I just recently started our business and we are getting quite alot of interest and support from good folks just like you. Nathan and I are both Mopar fanatics and we started our business for that very reason. It is becoming a very difficult hobby due to the diminishing of the parts. Our first parts was the 68 Dart seat medallions. This is what got us thinking we needed to help when I had a gentleman call me and ask me if I had any 68 Dart seat medallions since he new I had a BB 68 Dart. I looked and said yes sir I do but it is not in very good shape. He said I don't care I will give you $90 if that is OK with you. Well then is when I said we need to help if we can. We are now offering the 68 Dart seat medallions for $225 for a set of 4 beautiful new shiney parts made from high quality yellow metal with beautiful chrome plating. We have had great success with it and we have only had it out for 2 weeks now. We are excited and cotinuing to be listening for new ideas. We need what I call parts that are the size of your hand that we can build a mold and cast the parts in a foundry we use. We are now evaluating the GTS door panel emblems. It looks like we may be bringing this on by the time it snows in Indiana. We will also be evaluating the chrome console automatic shifter knob. Well I don't want to hog the space but felt like I needed you and anyone else to understand what S&N RE-POPS are trying to do. We are new and excited so be patient with us and we will do our best to do what makes good business since to help. Some things we just won't be able to do but please don't be afraid to ask. Kind Regards, Steve & Nathan S&N RE-POPS 68.dart@insightbb.com765-437-2929 |

Steve, Can you re-pop a stearing column cover to replace or change a car from a column shift to a floor shift?
This is a very hot item that is getting harder to find, I have even had to chop up a column shift cover and smothe it
out on one car because I could not find a floor shift steering column. Just a thought.

Hi Steve,
The Bankerstoy informed me of this thread, Im the one that need a ft rh side marker bezel for a 70-71 Dart, this is the last part needed for my project, All other lenses & bezels are NOS, I bought some of the last ones known, I know there is a demand for side marker bezels thru people I talk to, But can't see paying $200.00 TO 600.00 for 1 bezel, There is 1 lh rear nos bezel on e-bay now for $200.00, I would like to help buy sending a set to work with, I will call,
Thanks
John

I have a meeting with my mold maker in the morning to discuss a few other items and I will bring the column collar up mut I am thinking this will be beyond our capability but give me a few days to investigate this... Thanks for your thoughts and ideas. Kind Regards, steve S&N RE-POPS 765-437-2929 |

John, If you could send me a picture of the a bezel then if you have an old spare for us to have for both evaluation purposes as well as making a mold if we go that route? We typically have the part for a couple weeks during or mold making process. Again S&N RE-POPS policy is that we will give you a free part from our first run for you allowing us to use your part for our mold making. Please get back to me on the picture and the part. Kind Regards, steve S&N RE-POPS 765-437-2929 |

Steve, I was just talking to you on the phone about 1973 Duster taillight bezels. Nobody makes them. I will send you an email with my info, and get a set sent to you. Thanks, Paul
Paul.... Things are not looking good in aking the tail light bezels at this point. The process we use the part is just a bit to large for it to work. This work have to be more of a die cast process and we are doing a foundry molding process. I hate to have to bring you the news but I am still keeping this in mind if I ever feel we can do you and the Mopar world any good. However I have a great guy that does my chrome plating and he does potmetal and has always done a beautiful job on my bezels I have sent him. I have sent him some way worse than the ones you sent me. Are you hurting for a pair for your car? If so I would be more than glad to have him give you a quote to repair and plate your bezels. It would not be an arm and a leg, just an arm? This is up to you but thought I would offer you some help? If not I will package them up and send them back to you. Sorry my friend. I need parts that are about the size of your hand and that are a molded part that I can pur at a foundry with molten yellow metal. Let me know, steve S&N RE-POPS 765-437-2929 |

Steve, I just got off the phone with you, I like what I heard from you & how you are trying to help MOPAR people out, I like dealing with people who are trying to help another get their ride roll'n, Ive been doing MOPAR for nearly thirty years & parted way to many out out!, Today people are taking worse ones then I parted & restoring them, Kind'a wish I had the foresight & kept them, I had at least 125 cars that I've owned/raced/shown/& parted, But now I only have 2 cars, a 70 4-speed Prostreet Cuda project & a 70 4-speed Big block Dart project Thats nearly finished, My driver is a HEMI Ram 4x4, I live in a town where MOPARS are a minority, John  |

STEVE, I sent a set of side markers for a 70-71 dart out this morning, Hopefully this can be done for us 70-71 DART owners, Please keep us informed Thanks John " OVERPOWERED" We will gladly take a look at it and see if it is feasable to make. We are in the process of making the mold for 68 Dart GTS front door emblems. We are in hope of having these available in a few weeks. We are still looking for what I call open hand ideas. Ideas the size of an open hand that can be poured in a foundry with a mold we have made. I hope you sent all your information like name, address, phone number, kind of car you have along with the side markers. This way we can get you logged into our system. Look forward in seeing the parts and taking them into consideration. It would be nice to come up with a few parts that are common to more than one car. I thought I had someone sending me a shifter knob for the common auto on the floor shifter. The knob what a plastic push button button in the end. These I was told wear very poorly. I told them to send me a knob to look at and I haven't received it. I need to go back an look in my emails for the person I talked to. Thanks, steve S&N RE-POPS 765-437-2929 |

The front side markers especially. All northern cars with salt exposure get corroded from the back side. The rears seem to stand up a bit better. Would love to see all 4 repropped
