Any one have any rear fin chrome extensions found on models with only a small insert colour?

NES304

still looking (Even in poor condition)

hey nes,

You're after extensions?... or photos? :)

I have a pair that I won't now be using, will get some snaps over the next couple days.

NES304

both but prefer to buy them



NES304

just for clarification, what I am after is the piece that runs from the rear boot fins to the rear 1/4 glass (fin extension) So if anyone has any laying about....



NES304

or a photo of one so I can maybe copy the profile and knock up my own...



Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius

Do you mean this bit, from the top of the taillight across the top of the quarter panel?

NES304

not the actual fin itself but the bit that runs on after the top boot fin has finished to the rear 1/4 glass as seen on in the very right upper corner of the photo..
do you have a pair?

Nes, I have a pair of the extensions you need (I didn't reply earlier because I thought you may get some closer to where you are).  The tag where it is screwed in behind the door rubber is damaged on both of them but the stainless itself is good and straight.  I want $20 for the pair plus freight from Victoria (probably about $5)

Nes, You may also need the correct rear fins to accomodate the fin extensions. The correct fins have a bit machined at the tip and the extensions slide over the top of them  ;)

thanks col, ace and mcl for help.....
ace, can the pair I have be cut in a way to accomodate or simply place the extension over the top?
mcl, sent you a pm

Nes,

I have modified 58 type fins to accept late 59 extensions without any problems. Just measure and use a small file to make the 'adjustments'. It only needs a little taken off.

I have a set of rechromed late 59 fins if you get stuck. Let me know via P.M if you need them and I'll send you a price and picture.

Cheers,

Craig.
