Well I was lucky enough to meet and reconnect with a restoration source at SEMA this year and they were adamant about reproducing Mopar parts, even with the economic market for cars changing. I will be giving feedback and suggestions on products and the viability of of parts to be made. Their part line will not be of sheet metal or upholstery, but everything else would be a go. Range is a-bodies, 1963-1974 b-bodies, e-bodies, 1966-1971 c-bodies and f-body cars. If you have a suggestion and possibly a pic, please post that here and I’ll be checking with them on possible product production.

I will be submitting some items myself including:
1971-1974 b-body taillights parts (except lenses).
1970-1980 a-body/F-body ducktail spoilers
1968-1970 340 exhaust manifolds.

So what suggestions do you guys have?

So much for my '65 Belvedere quarter panels.

Affordable 2nd gen hemi parts.

Heater box cases would be great, but pretty complicated to do I imagine. Nice heater box cores are not that easy to get if you have a badly broken one. The ones in the junkyards here are typically dry and fragile. New ones made in a better material would be super.

Pushbutton radio buttons?

Bumper guards for some cars are difficult to find. Most bumpers are reproduced at this point I think?

1964 Plymouth grill guard / bumper over rider?

Brushed 14" trim rings available? Seems most everyone wants 15" or bigger wheels so this may be a money looser?

Headrests?

1970 ESC gas caps. Think NOS is all that exists for some types of gas caps?

Sunroof parts like weather stripping ect.?

Luggage racks?

Brake drums that are no longer made, or made poorly.

Small bolt pattern a-body disc brake dust shields maybe?

Recall Wheels? I think someone made them and then quit?

Any unique master cylinders need reproduced?

SB 90 degree oil filter adapters are now a lot more then they used to be for some reason. Are they now hard to get?

Any steering wheels?

Some alternator pullies made back them don't look like the ones that come on alternators today.

Wiper arms or wiper blades?

Sway bar tabs for lower control arms.

Pinion yoke dust shields.

You know that will never happen but lets give thanks to a few things that are cheap. #1 Aluminum heads. In 1975 a set of Diamond or Mullens ported heads, that are dogs compared to Edelbrock Victor Jrs, cost nearly as much as what we pay now. I love it. #2 Big cubic inches. Around that same time, I don't really remember when, there was an article on the cover of Hot Rod magazine, 575 cu in MILODON MASTADON, I forgot the details but these guys probably spent 6 months and a zillion dollars to build a 575 cu in Hemi. Now we get full radius stroker cranks and H-beam rods almost for free. And you just bolt it together, like theres nothing to it. #3 Power. Before Ray Barton got so busy he offered single 4-bbl, flat tappet, pump gas street motors with 800hp. That's WAY MORE power than Pro Stock cars had in 1975. And now we have it in a grocery getter. Lets give thanks.

340 manifolds were done years ago, stock depleted?

'70-'71 high quality e-body rear convertible interior panels. Probably just a fantasy...

My 1st question would be what their manufacturing capabilities are; that would refine or set expectations for possible products.
I would think they'd want to work on items with a higher volume first, or maybe those where the market supports a higher return on investment.
They might want to pick Tony D'Agostino's brain - also Joe Suchy & Jim Kramer, if possible - for items they get requests for but can't supply.
Lots of things come to mind:
Air Grabber ducting
The notorious thumbwheel dash-light dimmer switches
Proper/correct brushed trim rings
Recall wheels
Decent fuel sending units
Lower dash pads for '68-'69 B bodies
LA-engine left side manifold heat shields

We have reached a point of devastation concerning not just manufacturing- but ANYTHING that requires human beings to make work. In manufacturing- such as our beloved car parts- there is a shortage of COMPETENT workers. What workers show up are below average to unacceptable. What product is made and makes it out the door is suspect in quality to unusable. Look at the service you get with your drs office now- go to a restaurant- try a fast food drive thru at 7pm. AMD a while back was dumping a lot of sheet metal- I assume these items will no longer be made? I was lucky to get my Hoosier pro street radial rear tires 2 months ago. Summit and Jegs - either "None in stock" or "Better order soon 1 in stock." But I would like to see all mopar sheet metal continued ready to use- drop in wire harnesses.

Good quality brake drums.

Hood ornament for 1966 Plymouth , and I'll loan my original to pattern off of. There are a couple companies making the 67 style

All they need to make is the die-cast for the 66

The engine size decals are already available


And I'll second the left exhaust heat shield / gasket for 340

discontinued

This. Exactly this.

I was one of them that gave a deposit for two sets back when Metro first floated the idea. Sadly they did not get enough interest back then. I doubt it would be better now.
If I win the lottery, this is one thing I plan to rectify.

Trunk mats that are on par with what ECS was having made.
ECS is no longer able to get their subsupplier to make them.

Correct 15x3 trim rings polished and brushed.

They are the largest producer of restoration parts and they supply , OER, Classic Industries and Year One, just to name a few companies.

15 x 7 trim rings, 3 inches deep, polished and brushed.

Please and thank you!

Overlooked makes and models need any support?

Any parts needed for the older 70's Dodge pickups - ie the bird bath hood years. Grilles, side trim, dash pads, roll bars, etc.
C-body parts?
80's Shelby cars? Weather-stripping, Shelby seat covers, door panels?
AMC cars?

1970 Coronet tail panel? I don't think those have been reproduced?

Any emblems that aren't made? Plymouth Scamp, Pickups, C-body stuff, ect.

70s dodge truck roofs and parts in general.

Like it’s posted, no sheet metal.
