I work with a couple of people who have 56 T-Birds. One of them has had his
for about 30 years and rebuilds the power seat relays for other owners. He
showed me a relay he was working on. What he is doing is carefully opening
up the original relay case, tossing out the original relay guts, and
installing a modern 30 Amp relay in its place. Once the origianl case is
replaced over the new relay you cannot tell what has been done inside.
I know that the relays I am using on Mr. Hyde will not fit into the original
relay housing in the roadster, but I have seen relays in the wrecking yard
that might do the trick. Do a little homework and you might find what you
are looking for.... And a new business to provide relays to roadster owners
:-)
