did you look at Grainger or McMaster-Carr? You can research the size based various details and get close. You may need to buy a bag of 20...but still cheap
Yes, it is a 1970 piece only. It is also referred to as a Guide.
Place a wanted ad and someone may have a set. The internal rubber pieces are reproduced
few people are willing to dive into a project of that level...great job!
There is a TA block and trans (4 Speed) on Facebook for sale for like $19,000...starts with 296...but not an exact match to yours of-course (yours being an Auto)...but it does show that they do come out of the woodwork.
This is just a pet-peave of mine....if you have original door panels without woodgrain please don't modify them to have woodgrain!
Original panels without woodgrain are relatively rare (early production and Deputy), where-as woodgrain versions ran all the years so can be found.
Jeff, regarding your comment about the opening dimension of 32" vs 33", as was commented above, the fender tooling (outside skin) didn't change shape over the years. So, it could have been modified by someone (would seem like a strange thing to do) or possibly your method of measuring is a bit...
You can contact Dave Wise...at MMC Detroit.
Are you just looking to verify the documentation you have, such as decoding the BC sheet and Fender tag?
If so, you can go to the tag decoders at E-bodies.org and save some money. (MMC Detroit also sells numerous books for cross-reference)
A lot of...
i would also agree that the color looks to be a darker red...but the fender tag shows a 5/20 SPD...so it was a late build car.
Cool car...
if it wasn't chin-deep in a couple of other projects i'd be interested.
So, as this thread and some other have comments about Booster rebuilds i thought i would list them:
- Booster Steve
- Midwest Power Brake Products (despite name they are now in Florida)
- Brake Boosters
- Prior Auto
- Karp's
- Harmon Classic Brakes
I've used Steve and may use them again...
I don't have a picture at the moment, but for mine the whole perimeter gap between the plug and the body was tapped over with aluminum duct wrapping tape.
Describe what you have (the scope of the work), what needs to be done, and what level of car you are looking to have when it is all done.
That may help.
