Thanks Terry. I’ve been keeping an eye on it, and if I don’t find a better one in the near future, I’ll likely buy that one.

There is a Trunk Lid currently for sale on Ebay.
Looks like a Westchester Trunk Lid, it is located in Watertown, New York.

Another update; I picked up the pair of Cord fenders I was able to source; they will need work but are very saveable.
I bolted them on the car as I want to rough fit the sheet metal before I pull the car apart for a full restoration.
The area around the passenger side fender headlight has some old tears that have been patched in the past, and I will redo that area. I now realize that there is a surround piece that is spot welded to the interior of the fender inside the headlight opening that the pop up headlight assembly bolts to. That piece is there on the drivers fender but is missing on the inside of the passenger fender.
If anyone has a parts fender laying around I would be happy to buy that inside plate

So I’ve been very lucky and people have been very helpful with the parts I’m needing.
I’ve sourced a fuel/oil gauge, a steering wheel, and most of the body panels I’m needing.

I am still looking for a Westchester trunk lid if anyone has a line on one.

Todd you should place this add lower down in the Cord Parts Section of the Forums.
You can make the strap using the attached sheet. I can't help you with any other parts but I do have a lot of information on them.

Hi gents; I thought I’d start a dedicated thread regarding my search for parts I am needing for my 1936 Cord Westchester. I am looking to gather the parts and then once I have everything I need, I will then dive into the full restoration of my car.
I’ve got a few lines on the body panels I am missing, but will need a few other parts that are unfortunately missing as well. I am sure I will also come across some more missing parts as I go, but here are the obvious ones I am in need of.
 
1) fuel/oil level gauge

2) correct 1936 steering wheel

and 3) the fittings and strap that go on the rear top of the front seat above the ash tray.

if anyone has any of these parts, or might have a lead on them I would greatly appreciate the lead!
