Title: Thermostat Bypass housing 65 GS steering box and steerign wheel needed
Post by: dcenslow on July 22, 2010, 10:53:29 AM

Hey I really need the thermostat bypass housing (the cast iron part that directs coolants to both sides of the block after the thermostat)
65 GS 401

Mine is cracked and suggestions on where to find one would be great.

I also need a steering wheel and steering box (might go to year one for that)

Thanks

David E

David, welcome to the forum!
The steering wheels are being reproduced, but I don't have Frank's contact information handy.
Maybe someone can post that, but I'll take a look later. Trying to find a good used one will be a challenge.

David,

Here is the link for the reproduction steering wheel. Hopefully Frank will have some left.
