Hello,
I am missing a few details on the instrument panel, namely the 2 escutcheons being the windshild wipers and the bezel behind the vent button. I can create the vent bezel on a lathe if necessary.
Regards,
Dennis
You could also make the wiper escutcheons on a lathe.
1.25" OD
.312" overall height
flange .062" thick
extension .375" OD
.312" thru hole
screw hole spacing 1.0"
I am missing part of the vent operating mechanism. I would like to see a picture of all those parts so I would know what I am missing.
Hello Rob,
Thank you for the information. I may give it a try making the wiper parts on the lathe. I am sending you the vent information. If you can’t make out something let me know.
regards
Thanks Dennis. I have all those parts. Apparently I am missing something that attaches to the lid itself.
Hello Rob,
This is a picture of your missing piece in the car. On the right top it is attached to the vent itself, with a small shinny bolt and knut. The piece bends close to 90 degrees and has a pin and cotter pin at the angle. On the left edge of the picture, the piece splits to accept the bent piece , again using a cotter pin. … The bent piece with the black knob that you already have .
I will try to get it out tomorrow for better measurement.
Dennis
Hello Rob,
It is not impossible to get that particular part out of the car, but very close. I chose to measure it and make a model. It is a one piece casting that could be cut out of raw material…or perhaps made in pieces and welded together. It is just a lever, but must be strong due to the original vent design.
Regards,
Dennis
Thanks Dennis. I get the idea. I can make that.
Very clever to think of modeling it in wood.
