Original finish was a dark grey phosphate finish.  Happen to have a pair of NOS hinges here [not for sale] , so I could post pictures if anyone is interested.

Please do.  I'd love to see them.

Thanks,

Is this piece of the throttle linkage still available and is it complete? Mine is missing the bit on the end where it attaches to the carb... Please and thanks!

Wheelz,

If bob_o does not want the switch I will take it if it isn't broken.

Looks as if the metal hinged part is missing and the end is cut off.

wheelz, it looks like what I need is actually the Ball Stud that attaches to the carb linkage.. You don't have one of those little bits by any chance, do ya?

Wheelz,

Does this car have the floor brackets in the rear for rear seat belts?
And if so, would you be willing to cut those chunks of floor out and ship?

Please let me know - thanks!

Mark,

If Dennis doesn't have the rear seat belt mounts, I have them on my 4-door parts car.  Don't know if they'll fit on a hardtop, but available if Dennis comes up empty.

Wheelz,
Just let me know. I've had that same crud. Flu, then a real nice hacking cough. Still have the cough...

Chuck,
Sounds good, thanks!
