Our intentions are to start stripping the car next week, & as parts become available, they will be offered in the Parts For Sale section unless someone has pre-booked them. Ailwyn, the gearbox is still for sale, i'll send you PM. Dave , havn't decided yet whether to sell engine as a 50k good nick runner or split, will let you know.

Dear Ian:

I could be mistaken, but aren't those caps on the front brakes standard GM stuff available pretty much anywhere?

Sincerely,

Algirdas


Curses, my attempt to sneak a numpty question into a thread was spotted :-D

So does anybody know what the slider caps came off? :roll:

and how long before the admins take revenge on my attempted thread misdirection

Dear Ian:

I would try 1991 vintage Pontiac Le Mans/Grand Prix, Chevy Lumina, Buick Regal, Old Cutlass Supreme etc.

I have mine off since I am doing Brian's brake upgrade. Want me to swing by Napa on my way home for you?

Sincerely,

Algirdas
