A longtime NDC member - Gil Evangelisto - contacted me as the '55 model year coordinator searching for a replacement RH side exhaust manifold for his '55 V-8. My parts book research tells me the p/n for this manifold is 1407719. This same p/n was used on all '53 - '55 DeSoto hemis. The p/n changed for 1956. If anyone has one that is not cracked and or otherwise defective Gil is willing to pay reasonable and customary fees for the part and shipping. He lives near the Allentown/Bethlehem PA area. Please help if you can with the part or leads. Thanks.
Bumping for my friend Gil. Anybody have one or know someone who has one?
