Anyone in Metro-area have window louvers?

I'm looking for someone who has the Factory window louvers still on thier car.
I would like to be able to get some dimensions off of the factory hinges/prop rods... ect. ect.
I'm having NO luck buying a used set of mounting hardware ,So I figure i'll manufacture my own set
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks in advance
Steve
Please dont flame me about the louvers... hehe

Well,The T-5 has its own spot on my work bench right now!
I pulled it last weekend B4 I store the car
I Need to get the correct speedo gears in it,plus I got a brand spankin new tailhousing and mainshaft for it for 10 bucks
I figured that was cheaper than buying just the rear bushing
I also got a hurst shifter and a LS-1 alum driveshaft too...needless to say...the tranny and driveshaft swap makes it feel like a whole different car!
Now if only that mini-ram would work as advertised...hmmmm
Take care
Steve

I have a complete Cragar window louver set thats been hanging in the rafters of my garage for some years. They're very similar to the factory ones, and these are in pretty decent shape - if you're interested, let me know.

Thanks for the rave reviews of my car, Steve - I always like the opportunity to show it off to new people. It was nice to meet, and do business with you.
