Title: Fibreglass Moulds for FC Arm Rests
Post by: Jolls on November 09, 2023, 06:13:36 PM
Hi Team

I am wondering if anyone has made a set of moulds for the FC arm rests. If so would I be able to borrow/hire them or purchase a set of your recreations?

If the answer to the question above is no. Is it feasible to create a set of moulds to reproduce them?

I guess finally - if you think it is possible to make a set of moulds does anyone have a set of originals forms that I could borrow/hire to have a crack at making them. Once they are made, it possible, they could become a FE/FC club tool fo otheres to benefit from.

Cheers n Beers

Hi Team

I found this on eBay ($95) plus postage. Says it is FE; however, suspect that it is FC.

Can anyone confirm that this is an FC armrest? 

If I can get hold of one I will have a crack at making up a set of moulds so that these can be reproduced as required.

Cheers n Beers

That's FC and a pretty nasty example if you ask me, FE arm rests doubled as door pulls and are the same as 55-57 Chevs.

Also, don't waste your money. I have one you can borrow, just PM me your postal address.
