AboutSkip Bollinger Expertise Heretofore, I will NOT answer any mechanical question. I am not qualified and can only offer speculations. You are better served by others that are true Techs. With that being said, please only ask about parts and locating obsolete Auto Parts. Thank you.
I have the ability to locate quite a few mechanical parts for American made vehicles fron the 1900`s to present. Some are OEM and some are aftermarket. This would include engine, brake and chassis parts. Body parts and trim are VERY difficult to find but you may inquire.
If you need assistance in repair, I have illustrated books for major American manufacturers that show some illustrations BEFORE 1974. If needed, I can supply repair manuals for your specific vehicle.
PLEASE REMEBER I'M A PARTS SPECIALIST, NOT A TECH!! Thank you..

Question Need replacement for 1966 Mercury Park Lane Convertible.
Has factory A/C Installed.
Answer Ken,
Wow! What a land yacht was a '66 Park Lane!! It's been a long time since I've seen one of those.
You don't give me much information except you need another one. IF you still have what's left of your old one, you can fabricate one from thick (approx .030") construction cardboard. You should be able to get this from any hobby/craft store. IF your old one is totally gone, start calling your local Ford & Mercury dealerships to see if you can get me the Original Ford Part Number. It should be something like C6MZ-06010-AA or something very close. There may be some letters that are different but it should begin with C6??-06010-??. The first two digits designate the decade and year within that decade so C6 equates to 1966. NOW if they used the same box in 1965, the number could be C5. Make sense? ALSO see if they can tell you what other Ford vehicles used that same box. Was it the same on a convertible and other body styles, 2 door, 4 door, station wagon? The more information you can supply, the easier it makes my job. Just remember I'm getting paid a lot for this (ha ha, Earth humor, sorry).
Why don't we just begin there. I still have more ideas (finding a good used one) and so on but I could be typing here for a month. Let me know...
