Hi,

Would anyone have a pair of FE/FC Panic Straps (15.390 Strap Assembly - Assist Grip) with reasonable chrome for sale?

Part numbers LH 7411379 and RH 7411380.

Thanks

Excellent, thank you RET.
My 20 year parts catalogue starts at EJ so the Catalogue number of 15.390 is listed but not the FE/FC part number.
It's good to know the proper description too.

Hi all,
Could anyone advise me the part number for FE/FC Panic Straps? I couldn't find it listed in the 20 year parts catalogue.
And does anyone have a pair with reasonable chrome for sale ?
Thanks.

Thanks Errol 62,
That will do fine. I'll send a PM.
Regards Frank

Thanks Doug, much appreciated.

It also looks like the rods need to be ground down so that the chromed mounts can be removed and then the rods re-peened over to reinstall.

Hi all,
I'm looking for an FC Holden clutch slave cylinder, part number 7409952, casting number 7409134.
I'll be reconditioning it so it doesn't need to be in working condition.
Thanks.

Could anyone assist to tell me how you take apart the internal sun visors including how the visor part is removed from the rod.
Thanks

Hi,

I have two different styles of tin pot master cylinders (same part numbers) and am wondering which is right for a late 59 FC?

I also have tin pots with different hole sizes in the base, is this something that just varied from manufacturers?

Thanks

Hi RET and thank you.

I've found an item on ebay that has used your suggestion. I may go with that or make my own up.

Some time ago I purchased a retro sound 6"x9"dual cone speaker that fits the grill nicely but is too big for the dash. The dual 4" arrangement looks to be a winner for fit and sound quality.

Hi all,

I was wondering what others have done to replace the original radio speaker?

My radio has been rebuilt with AM/FM and Bluetooth and I am looking for a good speaker that will fit the centre dash grill where the original speaker was.

Thanks

Thanks Ken, I'll give Chris a call.

Hi all,

I'm at the electrics stage of my rebuild and wondering if anyone would recommend an auto electrician that could check/recondition my generator, starter and regulator?

Preferably Melbourne area so I don't have to post.

thanks in advance

Hi all,

Regarding the Loctite 454, could anyone guide me where to buy bottles of it?

Tubes of 454 are readily available but the only other option seems to be a syringe which could be hard to get - I only found one advert for it from America at a high cost.

Thanks in advance and for all the great advice on this forum.

Hi Ken and thank you. I've seen them in a few different colours and what's left of the paint on mine is black-ish so I guess it's original.

Hi all,

The long accelerator linkage that runs right-left behind the motor - what colour would that be originally or was it cad plated or other?

Also same question for the link near to the carburettor that the spring hooks to.

Thank you

Hi Harv and thank you.

I've also been reading about cleaning the core by flushing with vinegar or baking soda. Not sure I want to risk it but I'm interested in what others think.

Regards

Hi,

My NASCO beehive heater has been out of the car for 20+ years and I'm getting close to refitting it.

The core looks good and passed a leak test but I presume I should re-core it after so long.

Can anybody recommend where I could get a re-core done in the Melbourne area?

Thank in advance

Hi Errol - thank you, I'll give them a call.

That's it - thank you.

Apparently Classic Gloveboxes are no more unfortunately.

I've been doing a web search with no luck and found a previous post that confirmed they are MIA
Inner firewall cardbord trim

In that post there is a link to an ebay site that is still active that sells repo firewall boards at $500.

I'm still to track down a trimmer so any suggestions are welcome.

Cheers
