I am slowly putting my 1964 Plymouth Fury back together. It has been apart for 15 years. Right now I am trying to install the headliner but am missing a part. I've looked everywhere in my parts stash and everywhere online and cannot find one. It goes on one end of one of the bows. I have one as pictured. Any ideas?
 
iam sure i have some. the trick is finding them. after it cools down outside. ill go to the garage to find them. i might even some old wire on a spool. it might not be packard 440. but its good wire

It does look like it goes on a spark plug but it is actually a bow pivot for the headliner nearest the rear window. One per side. Much heavier than the ends on a HV wire. I've scoured the internet. I may just fabricate one. Thanks Fellas
 
Welcome...got a message back from my brother:

Best of luck finding or making that little goodie!
 
Found it! Actually my wife found it inside the B pillar using a boroscope. We also found some sockets, screws,nuts and assorted other magnetic debris.
Thanks for the help.
 
Meant to say "C" pillar as this car is a hardtop and lacks a B pillar.
