Ciao Sebastiano!
sono contento di veder un altro Europeo occuparsi con vecchie Plymouth. Io sono cresiuto a Milano negli anni 60...
Sorry, ........
nice to see another European keeping an old Plymouth. I grew up at Milan in the 60ies and love to travel Tuscany and Liguria by Plymouth.
So here is my list, but first You have to look for a kind of service manual for Your car - You will find advice here.
This is my adresslist for Ply Dealers, recovered from this forum:
Monthly Hemmings motor news ( www.hemmings.com) is the most valuable help in finding sources.
Try Andy Bernbaum?s, don?t know if they have Your parts on hand, but they have a lot of Mopar stuff! Very fast service and very friendly and reliable people! I never had problems with them in all these years, but others had when sending back unuseful parts. (See "buyer beware")
Bernbaum?s auto parts 315 Franklin Street Newton, MASS. 02158 Phone + 617- 244- 1118 FAX + 617- 244- 1164
You can also try Roberts or Pro Antique - got nice, fast service for a few placed orders from both:
Roberts , 17 Prospect Street West Newbury, MASS. 01985 Phone (978) 363- 5407 www.robertsmotorparts.com
Pro antique Auto Parts, 50 King Spring Road, Windsor Locks, CT 06096 Phone (860)- 623-8274 FAX (860) 627- 8061
The biggest seems to be Kanter, because it was very difficult to get a competent Clerk. Parts for my 1951 were good, minus one pair of too big exentric front end bushings, which would have been taken back by them. They had no advice on correct bushings and I preferred to have them milled down to fit here in Germany
Kanter, 76 Monroe Street Boonton, NJ 07005 Phone: 973-334-9575 FAX 973-334-5423 www. kanter.com
Prices are high everywhere, all have good catalogs.
I have no own experience with the following:
(from Bill Ward): ?For whatever it is worth, my opinion is that the two best parts suppliers out there are:
NEIL RIDDLE - (206) 285-6534 -
Neil is a pleasure to work with and often has stuff that nobody else has. He works hard to keep his stock fresh and he always has something new. Neil doesn't have a website but I've never had any problem reaching him by email or by phone. ?
TONY CIPPONERI usually recommends:
?TRY G & G MOPARS AT 909 825 1231 OR FAX THEM AT 909 825 0307? Tod Fitch recommends: ?Antique Auto Parts Cellar has the heat riser stuff. The also do business as Then and Now Automotive.

Sebastiano, You may want to contact Matteo Alice ( ) in Milano. He has been working on a 1928 Plymouth roadster for over 6 months, and might be able to help you with Euro resources. I can provide you with lots of detail photos and some parts for your 1929.
