61-63 Parts Wanted
 
Casperson signed off on selling parts in the Tech forum. Makes sense to have a wanted thread as well. Lets try to keep all parts wanted requests in the Tech forum to this sticky.

63 steering wheel
 
Looking for a black steering wheel for my wife's 63. I have a half descent horn ring but the two wheels I have are badly cracked. I have a deluxe one that needs repaired but $1500 plus exchange is too much.

When I needed one for my 62, I used 2 of the adapters for a Lokar throttle cable. I used one on each end. Although you may need to open the hole on the carb and also the trans for the stud to go through.

I went to my local hardware store and bought a length of small cable. I was lucky, in that the tube was still in the car, just not the cable. I suppose if you don't have the tube, a piece of brake line would work.

moneypit 04-04-2015 11:49 PM

Thanks for the idea, the tube is still in the car so I guess i get to make one.

Gary, How recent is the RARE PARTS info? A few years ago I talked with them about the manual units and they were wanting about $280 and you had to furnish a core piece. They told me that supplies of core pieces had virtually dried up at that time.

Doug,
Very recent, I had one in my hand in September that my friend just got back from Rare for $197. He was impressed with the quality and wanted to show me before he put it in. Another friend told me the same price, he just got his back from them two weeks ago and he lives in Canada.

Go on their website and take a look for part number 20744 or search by vehicle and price is $197 R & R only, you have to send them yours.

Both of my extras are bad too. Good used ones are hard to find. Good thing you only need 2 and not 4. I think C5farmer or Keith rebuilt one and posted it here.

Thanks for the update.

That looks like a good deal for sure. I notice the one pictured in their ad has a grease fitting added to it. That is a nice touch. (Wonder why Pontiac didn't do that originally?)

Rochester 2GC
 
I am trying to locate a choke manifold plate for the 63 336. Ames has it listed for the 195-4 only - part LN401D. I spoke with Ames and they did not know if it would fit. Has any one tried this part in the 336. Another option I am considering is pluging and going with an electric choke. Can any one recommend an electric choke for the 2GC. Thanks,

On the lower ball joints, there are ball joints advertised on Ebay, etc. as fitting the 63 but they don't. The correct 63 uses a "pressed-in fit" style and the wrong ones are threaded (screw-in) types used on Buick Skylarks.

I suggest that you buy a complete rebuild kit from KANTER. It won't include a new/rebuilt Pitman arm.

ISO plug n play 215 for a '61 auto application. For now, I'm not interested in sourcing parts from around the country, so a complete running carb-to-pan-to-flexplate-to-fan-to-exhaust manifolds-to-starter purchase works best.

The the same as a 61. I removed one from a guys car and installed a remote control one. May still have the old one.

I am looking for the rubber(ish) o-ring/gasket between the fuel tank and fuel nozzle for the rear facing 63 lemans gas tank.

Does anyone have one or a source for a substitute?

Mike,,, good talking with you the other day & good to see the LeMans! Someone here should have what you are looking for

AzMike 06-02-2015 05:44 PM

For what it's worth, I posted an introduction in the "projects" thread with pictures of the car, but the post is waiting for an admin to approve it. That has been over a week ago. Does this usually take this long?
