Tears (for a Diamond Jubilee)

[hypostang]

This truly brought a tear to my eye 1978 Diamond Jubilee in the local Pull A Part

[pro-five-oh]

The interior trim, tool kit, grille badge and opera windows are worth $$$.

I'll probably be interested in the opera windows if you remove them carefully (with an exacto knife) and the diamonds in them are in good shape.

I'm going back on Wednesday I'll see what I can do :)

We ought to meet out there some weekend. I love that place. Some of the cars that are out there just make me sick though.:( I tried to buy a 67 Conti 2 door a few years back from them. Didn't work out for me though.

FYI,
I found A DJE in the junkyard years ago and pulled the opera windows out , busted one in the process so I took the diamond out and brought it to a jeweler and we looked at through his microscope, it's just glass ....seriously.

The other opera window is not for sale, I mounted it in a wood plaque with a mirror behind it, plan on hanging it in my dream garage.

Hypostang,
If you go back ,
I would make it worth your while if you would be willing to take the chrome trim off the fender 'fins' (vents) and send them my way.

95 pres , I am going tomorrow I will see what I can do
Dereck , I grew up in Massachusetts where cars rot up to the windows in a matter of what seems like weeks , I moved here to Tennessee 7 years ago and still can't get over the total lack of rust the Jubilee would be worth a small fortune back where I grew up Btw
I am 41 so I lived with rust and rot for quite some time

I know, if it was a real diamond, all the sales literature would say so. And that's not why I want them. :)

I figured YOU knew,
was just throwing a bit of info out there for anyone that might have a "bright idea".

...all the literature I have doesn't say one way or the other, just says "jewel encrusted" and "diamond accent". (refrence: 1978 lincoln option/samples catalog)..... that's why I took the time to find out.....so no one else would have to.:)

All I really need is one from the drivers side (I don't think they are side specific though)... nicest one on the car would be great..... pleeeaaaasssee! :bow:
