Title: This could be cool? Repo bits for our cars!!
Post by: 4hammers on April 06, 2005, 02:24:54 AM
Hi Guys.
This may be in the wrong section, but I wanted everyone to see it. I was checking out a 58 Chevy not long back & noted how the door handles & winders looked exactly the same as our FE FC FB EK examples. So, I had a look on some sites to see if they do USA repos (Which seem to be very good quality most of the time). I found this dealer & he sells them in sets. They look great. This guys says he only ships to the USA, but I will email him & see what he can do.
Here is a link to one of his auctions for the handle winder sets;

The FE armrests are the same on some earlier model Chevs also.

Checkout this site http://www.danchuk.com/.
They have an agent in Vic just can't recall their name.

I have a friend who has two holden built chevs, a 53 & 59. They both use components that the holdens have and even the same sunvisors.

Hi Guys.
Well, I contacted him & he is happy to ship to Australia. $27.00 US via Air-Mail.
This brings the total to about $95 US = $123.00 AUD

Not bad!! That equals about $15 a piece (That includes the remover) & you have a couple of little ones left to do as you please!?
He assures me they are top quality & has offered to send one over so I can check it out.
I for one will be getting a set. I will let you know when they arrive how good they are.

Regards,
Rob J

Ron Wicks at Classic Chev Parts in Brunswick is the Australian dealer for Danchuk and other repro Chev stuff. Much of it is similar to FE-FC. He can be contacted at (03)93811955. I deal with him regularly.
