Hey guys -

I picked up a replacement fiberglass panel a while back and finally decided to install the letters this morning. I think the dimple placement guy was drunk when he made the mold.

Anyway, I have a spare and was wondering what steps you guys take to get them straight and evenly spaced.

Thanks for any insight.

Negative. Just the run of the mill 2bbl and 4bbl intakes.

I've come into a large selection of original Sunbeam parts. If anyone needs something, feel free to reach out directly at bmilos@gmail.com and I'll sort you out. I have a lot of a lot...

i have three HiPo C5OE-12127-E dual point distributors.

Correct.

I've heard the letter panel referred to (incorrectly, apparently) as the 'shelf' that breaks often when people lean or sit on it. Regardless, I'm missing those to metal pieces and could use them.

These?

Thanks. That what I thought and posted this originally and deleted. I got a pair but I think they are repo. They came with my 68 Shelby in 2006. My friend just picked up one original one he said and I have his originals that I want to verify the bend angles off of another friend's car soon. I'll ask if he has more than one spare. The mounting hardware should be 2 regular washer bolts that thread into these brackets plus the 2 for the latch support bracket. Can be bought real cheap from AMK. I may have some spare ones in my stash of replated hardware. the C-clips on the support are common items also.

Thank you, sir.

Ill look into the AMK as a band-aid, but definitely need to source a good original set. Please let me know if something pops up!

Correct.

I'm actually looking for the two metal brackets that connect the center of the fiberglass shelf to the hood latch/grill.

Anyone have an original set for sale? Mounting hardware would be great too.

Thanks!

Hi guys -

Any of you ever experience a loud initial start up on a 68 GT500? It kinda screams when the starter engages. Fresh rebuild, maybe 1500 miles. I just replaced the (newish) starter with a new new one and the noise problem still persists... not the biggest deal, just kind of embarrassing.

Thought I'd phone a friend.

Thank you!

Milo

Thanks Pete. How do you go about replacing the wood appliqué? Is it just getting a patch and cutting to fit?

What have y'all used to freshen this up? I saw branda referenced a separate reproduction part in the center piece listing, but it's nowhere to be found on his site, nor any other of the usual sites.

Also, what is the correct way to attach the emblem? It works like my original was glued...?

Thanks!

Thank you, Bob. My interior is very original and I'd like to maintain that.

Appreciate you!

Milo

Yet another part that I can't seem to find in my garage.

Anyone have a spare?

Bump

Still looking for an original black paint (no other colors, not looking to try and color match) glove box door in good/great condition. Only need the door, not the plastic box. Have no idea where mine went... too many moves, apparently.

Looking for a NOS rear quarter panel for a 65 fastback.

Thanks!
