Re: Tapered Axle Rear Brake Conversion

2955R from Raybestos.

If you have one with the rubber bellows.

Re: Door panel escutcheons

Yes! I ordered one for a 59-65 GM product a while ago as a friend was in need of some parts. I finally took off a doorpanel today and they look pretty much the same as the ones on the vert.

Re: Hazard / emergency flashers

I have a set for my 59 and my dads. Frank made a copy of the 60 flasher package and it should work fine.

I remember the correct parts were not super easy to find

Re: Carlisle 2020!

It’s still on.

I bet a lot of people aren’t going though.

Re: The Convertible

What lens? :mrgreen:
Weird part on this one is that there is no L or R on it. Need to see what side it is.
You need one?


Hopefully I can finish the rest of the ignition stuff today
