I inherited my fathers 1973 Dodge Charger. My Dad didn't like the fact that you could not run the electric windows with the key off so he wired them hot (ahead of the ignition switch) all the time.

BDeB, that metal filler you describe (and picture) seems so correct. The irony of this thread is that I just bought a driver's side mirror on eBay for my '41 Clipper and had the same question. My other question is; where on the molding is placement of the mirror correct? I noticed in one photo (blue car) that it was placed forward to the edge of the door. I've also seen it placed back farther, under (green car) or farther back beyond the vent window. All of these locations will work, I feel, but which is correct?

Side by side pictures of the standard 41/42 factory offered limo and 7 pass sedan by Briggs alongside the LeBaron versions would show the very significant differences between the two, especially in door framing, roofline, and interior. I believe there are pictures of both in Turnquists book. Briggs owned the LeBaron nameplate at that point.

I'm not sure but I think it is Golden Green metallic. It's a friends car. It is pretty isn't it.

Briggs built the limo and 7 passenger sedans.
Henney built the hearse, ambulance and other specialty cars.

I have seen several of the 22nd series Henney cars with both 22nd and 23rd series trim. I'm not sure why. One of which is a flower car.
