Excellent info gentlemen.
Getting going rounding up all the little pieces and parts.
Sometimes it takes a while, sometimes a few tries..
Sometimes you find out the stuff is on back-order (forever) and sometimes the new stuff is junk.
Been beating up Buddy's credit card right good!
This resto is pretty much straight from the "Parts Sources" sticky at the top of this category.
Got inquiries to a bunch of vendors for their parts,
And some are on the way.
Others are going out,
Like horns to hornworks and the power steering pump to Lares.
Hope to be getting the brake booster and hood hinges, going as well.
Who remembers the name of the guy in LA who re-does steering boxes for a better ratio.
Remember reading about him here and didn't write it down...
Anybody know who would rebuild the wiper motor or blower fan?
Somehow, it seems originals done by a craftsman would be better than new aftermarket,
Even with little electric motors...
Funny,
There's ONE radiator shop left a couple towns over.
I show up with the re-cored radiator and the one Kurt gave me.
Start explaining to him how we're doing a resto and...
He interrupts with "you want me to move those tabs over, right?"
