Legendary Interiors makes a reproduction - BT64GAFERRULE (clear plastic) $5.00/pr. Do not know if they are correct however.

Ames has the correct ones. Don't know the PN, you should be able to find it on their website.

I checked Ames, but they aren't what I'm looking for.  I will post a picture soon.

Hi Dan,

Here's a photo of a factory original from my convertible that I'm curently restoring. It measures 3/4" in diameter.  Is your photo of a repro ferrule?

Hi John:

My picture is the same as yours.  The repros Mark mentioned that Ames has do not match our picutres.  Do you know if these are reproduced?  Thanks

Dan,

Off hand, I do not know of any repro ferrules for our '65s. I am sure that you have already checked the usual aftermarket suppliers. Good luck and let us know if you find a source.

Dan,

I was looking through the Fusick Olds catalog a few weeks ago.
Might want to call them. They list an "exact" reproduction.

Here are some pictures of the ferrules. The first shows my mediocre correct ferrule. The second shows the inside of a correct ferrule (no plastic covering), the clear or translucent ferrule received from a vendor and the correct used ferrule.

Thanks, Dan.

I really could use the better looking correct used ferrule in the first picture. Please let me know if it's available.  Thanks.
