[Tigers] Where to find parts, shifter...

[Ron Fraser]

Fairmont pulley - junkyard or swap meet if you can find them there
There is a guy making them out of aluminum, $120 each - Bob Woolridge -
614-452-1191 - rwoolridge at insight.rr.com

Maverick fan - junkyard or swap meet maybe
Many are using a Derale fan

Grommet - Sunbeam Specialties or Classic Sunbeam

Shifter - I'm sure some have plated them - I painted mine, I was not worried
about masking off anything - I would guess the original parts were not
masked, just don't paint heavy in those areas, the parts will wear the paint
as needed.

Well, the stop-leak project is coming along nicely, getting everything
cleaned up and ready to go back in.



Any idea how to get one of the Fairmont pulleys or Maverick fans? I'm
assuming that these aren't available new so it's junkyard stuff-but the
application information is a bit fuzzy to do a good search.



How about the grommet that goes on the firewall to cover the RHD steering
column hole?



I have the shifter taken apart and am cleaning up all the parts. Has anyone
ever had the parts plated (zinc, cad, etc.)? I could easily blast and paint
them, but there are a LOT of parts that have metal-to-metal sliding contact
(with grease) so I would have to mask off quite a bit to keep everything
working right.



FYI, got the engine mounts, made by Anchor through Summit. One box says Made
is USA, one says Made in India. They look good.



Also got the thermostat housing from Scott Drake. Comparing it to the one
that I broke many years ago due to a misaligned thermostat, it looks VERY
good.
