It was not factory. I had a local upholstery shop make one for me back in '66, but I had two thin black nylon "ribbon" straps that fit under the console lid to keep it in place. And it was for my...

I can't remember, do these use a drilled bolt that goes through a fitting in the end of the hose to supply fluid to the wheel cylinder? Had one of those on an Olds and the brass washer was too thin...

Flasher/Turn Signal Relay

Does anyone have a source, or a part # for a '66 GTO relay? Are the '66 and '67 the same? Several decades ago I installed a heavy duty one, and it always flashed a little faster than normal, but it...
