Do you have any measurements or a diagram of your brackets? I have the cables

I bought the cables from Bert's. I checked out their website, couldn't even find the cables today.

I haven't heard that he is a crook. But from the response below, I concede that I might have been a bit naive in my thinking. I went to Instagram, and now realise that the guy I was thinking of is "65tempest" (Rene Gonzalez from La Mirada) who was recently inducted as a full member of the...

Thanks for the information and pictures. I haven't seen these before. I'll look into the possibility of using the original clevises on the cables the I have

Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone has some spare brackets that hold the emergency brake cables when fitting hydraulic brakes on a model A? Clings made them, and supplied Model A parts retailers, nut as you're all aware, they are no linger in business. If someone has some to sell, or if you are...

I drive a left-hand drive coupe in Australia. I have no problems driving it. The only difficulty is seeing past a slower car in front of me when I attempt to pass it on the open road. Not that that happens very often

I can help you out with FHT stuff, and 34 and 35 front brakes, and I’m ‘local’!

Google says it’s a ups store front. I’d like to believe that they would allow you to part out a car in their store

Hi guys, I am looking for a '35 front operating rod to suit mechanical brakes - Van Pelt Sales list it a #2075 on their 35-6 mechanical brakes diagram Also look for good wedge (pn: 2050) and Wedge bolt and nut (pn's: 2053 and 2054 Respectively) Se attached diagram for reference to these parts...

Good to see that the advice is consistant. Thanks to all who responded to my question

Thank-you Sir. The car was built in San Francisco, so I guess the additional taillight may have come from a swap meet, or …….

my coupe has been fitted with 2 taillights. both are nickel plates drum taillights. they differ from each other as one has the ‘duo lamp’ letters proud of the drum, the other - the letters are recessed. Is this because one is a reproduction light, or did they differ from the factory...

Thanks Tom for your input - hopefully I get it right - otherwise it could be an expensive mistake ..... if I buy a new r&p when it's not needed

I kniw this is an old thread, but how 'skinny' does the torque tube have to be to be an early rear end? My coupe has no rib on the centre, but the torque tube is the same diameter as a later tube.

Thanks for that advice Miles, I am trying to source a one piece cross shaft out here, but a left hand drive one is not that common.

Jim, my car is equipped with 32 front brakes, and they are a definite upgrade on the original. As they work well, it's hard to justify upgrading them to juice brakes. There is no clutch shudder to date. You may remember the car when it ran at the FAST time trials in 2018/2019, then modified by...

Uh oh!!! looks like I might in Doggy doos land

Thanks for the advice Jim. I followed your written words, and sourced a pair of long-out-of-production B into A float-a-motor mounts, and some pedal and wishbone mounts. A friend of mine was making a centre-mount emergency brake handle mount, so he made two, and the extra was a birthday present...

I know that it's probably impossible, but can a clam shell from an early production A (multi-pieced brake cross shaft) be fitted to a post-32 transmission?

I've been in touch with them recently - prompt replies to my emails
