Still Looking for Some Parts

It is almost comical how lots of stuff is available for my old pair of 59s, but it is the little cheapest parts that are the most challenging.
I am still looking for a jack handle/lug wrench. Many are available but I need one with a 7/8 socket! I also just found I am short the little clamp that holds the distributor in, number 18 on this photo. Can anyone help?

I have several distributor hold downs for big blocks.

Seems everybody does, my concerns were not warranted! I got one on the way from eBay. Now in full attack mode for the elusive lug wrench

I found a source for outside rear view mirrors, used on the 59 and other years MOPARS. They are NEW reproductions, for both sides, the left side is remote controlled in 59. I had been trying to get one in any condition for some time, since lots of these cars were bought without one, used ones have disappeared.

Thanks to another Imperial guy, I got one lug wrench coming from Murray Park, need two so am waiting for response if he has two of them.
