I have the door stainless trims, not sure what they are worth though?

[gtp292]

I have a complete front windscreen mould suit coupe spare but as said, "they are as rare as" and priced accordingly. Don't want to burst your bubble, but it took me close to 18 months to get a complete set of door moulds, front and rear. Be prepared to pay for those too, as ebay is about the only place you'll find them.

Good luck.

[grumblexr6]

Thanks for the reply guys. Yea im chasing these but plus few more as trying to get Dad's cobra back on road for October

Guys, I'm racing against time to get my coupe ready for Echuca & in desperate need of water pump pulley for Clevo with 2V belts on crank pulley (ie Power steering, no Air Cond). I have one from Tas which were supposed to be a pair (crank & WP), but the water pump pulley sits the belt too far back & interferes with the alt bracket. Please can anyone help. Ideally I would like to pick up this week end as I've got heaps to get ready on the old girl.

i assume the tas you mention is the state of tasmania. try tas from palace automotive in moorabbin, 9553 6066 - being an engine ancilliary i am not sure if he can help, but with the amount of coupe stuff especially and x series parts he has, he may be able to help you out

of course at this time of the weekend, it is unlikely to catch him now

gt0090. hey Paul, Mark here mate. Hope the pulley worked for you ??

[GT0090]

Mark,
- thanks for the pulleys off the XC (with PS & AC)
- haven't had a chance to fit 'cause my mate who's housing the car for now wanted to wind up for the weekend
- problem is that it looks like the water pump pulley is the same as I already had & makes the belt sit too far back ??
- it may be that I'm thinking the belts go around the wrong pulleys:
- does anyone know for a Clevo, with NO Air Cond & with Power Steering (which has been added), where do the belts loop:
- eg belt closest to carby: crank & altenator only ?
belt closest to radiator: crank, water pump & power steering pump ?
- any pics would be appreciated

[grumblexr6]

Thanx for the offer XE351 will keep in mind as found I guy last night with some spares so if falls through ill get in touch Thanks again Jon

[JG65TE]

I will have a look on the mrs's xc when i get home tomorrow Paul.

p.s as always if they no good to ya, bring em back and i will toss em back in with my spares.

[GT0090]

Mark,
- pulley fitted fine
- I was just measuring the diameter against centres, not figuring that the water pump pulley sat behind the crank pulley !

- engine going
- off to get the diff tomorrow
- still have interior, exhaust, rear suspension & a heap of stuff to go !
- it is four or five weeks left !

[GT0090]

Anyone suggest best option to refurb / restore XB Chamois Arm rests - alternatively, anyone have a car set they want to sell (if they're good nic)

Thanks Mate, just sent you a pm.

[memphis2k]

If anyone wants the leftovers from my taillight panel for rust repairs let me know, its going in the bin soon but happy to cut some chunks out, was replaced due to rust at the bottom edge, so honeycomb area, taillight areas etc are OK

All I ask is cover the postage

[JG65TE]

[fordmaddness]

hey all im reasonably new to here, im looking for a glovebox latch for my xa fairmont, anyone have 1 handy? correct screws would be good to lol.... and anyone wreckin an xa sedan around brisbane?

[Big Mike]

Not sure a glovebox lid is at all Coupe/Hardtop specific nor "Hard to get bits" as per this thread, although I imagine any wreckers with a few old Fords will probably have one.

[fordmaddness]

erm i asked for a glovebox 'latch' not a lid and erm all my local wreckers dont stock anything pre late 80s. thats why i came here thankyou for all your help.

[JG65TE]

prolly be able to help ya out fordmaddness if you like ? if its the same is a xb one i have a few spare complete dashes here for xb, no xa tho. ?

Mate dont worry about it to much when i was new here i got talked to rudely too when i put a few things in the wrong place!! But soon enough you will put the questions in the right place and the grumpy old buggers that dont have anything else to do but moan will leave you alone
