Hey all,

Jim rebuilt the turbo and that was the first thing I did on this. It is garnet mist with a white top. The paint shop had no trouble matching the color. I just gave them the GM color code that’s off of the cowl tag and they matched it up. In the background is a blue ’62 Cutlass that I found in the Phoenix, Arizona area about 20…[Read more]

Hey guys,

I thought I’d post some pictures of the current state of my ongoing ’62 Jetfire 4 spd. restoration project. This project has been going on for some years and I’ve had quite a bit of help from my friends, including a number of you guys (Jim, Eric, Ken, John Gage, etc.). I’m trying to get this out of my shop so I can tear it…[Read more]

Okay, thanks. I’ll check it out. I did the Google search and it pulled up a lot of sources. I thought I’d ask here if anyone had any success so I could narrow it down. Thanks again for your help.

Does anyone know a good source for reproduction molding clips that work for these cars? I am specifically trying to find ones that work for the hood lip molding and the molding that clips around the bottom of the rear window – stainless that extends around out from the diecast pieces that are directly below the rear window. I doubt there are…[Read more]

Thanks, guys. I may end up adapting a 64-67 boot as best I can. I’ve never seen one that is old and in a car that isn’t shredded like the one in the picture, which isn’t surprising. Thanks again.

Hi Everyone,

I’m looking or an NOS or reproduction clutch rod firewall boot for my ’62 Jetfire 4 speed project. I know these are hard to find, but I’m hoping someone out there can help. I found an NOS one once on eBay many years ago, but haven’t seen one since. Anyone have any luck adapting one from a different car and making it work?…[Read more]

Eric,

That sounds great! Thanks very much. I’ll get the check sent in a couple days.

I can send you a check. That might be easier for me rather than to try to deal with PayPal. Where do I send it and who do I make it out to? Please let me know. Thanks very much.

I’d like one. Where do I send payment? Thanks.

Actually, put me down for 2 of them. Thanks very much.

Okay, thanks. I’ll keep my eye on eBay.

Thanks. I was thinking of JB Weld for something like this. Very interesting.

Thanks very much. Do you know where I can get this bulletin? Thanks.

Does anyone know where to find a schematic for the radio that was in the 61-62 F -85? I’ve looked in the shop manuals and they don’t have one. I’ve got a few of these radios and my amplified sound expert friend is helping me tune one up for my current Jetfire project. Any help is appreciated.

How did you bond the washer to the housing on the back? Nice work.
BruceM replied to the topic Looking for '62 INBOARD taillight housing in the forum Discussion Topics – Ask the Experts 7 years, 1 month ago

Thanks for the info. I’ll look into Iverson.
BruceM replied to the topic Looking for '62 INBOARD taillight housing in the forum Discussion Topics – Ask the Experts 7 years, 1 month ago

Do you have a referral for a company that can repair and replate the diecast housings? I know of a company here in Utah, but wow, they are way expensive. Maybe they all are. I don’t mind shipping them somewhere if I can get quality work done for a reasonable price. Let me know if you know of anyone.
