They were installed, but the engine was never run. I suspect the machine shop made a mistake when planing the surface, but I will never know for sure. I replaced the camshaft, and I am not sure if the crack was already there before disassembly. I was considering new heads anyway, but I wanted...

It was installed already and I pumped water trough it. Seems like it had no leaks. Can you usually drive the car with that kind of cracks?

Cracks on my 516 cylinder heads valve stems. What are your thoughts?

Hi FBBO, about a year ago I was looking for the right horn ring adapter for my 1964 Polara. I found it, and it's now in my possession. I've discovered that this part is quite rare and not being reproduced. It is needed for a 1964 Polara with the full horn ring, and possibly for other years and...

I can bend one for you. Need to check if I still habe the spring steel for it. But should be not problem. How fast do you need it? I am not sure when I am able to do it.

Interested

Never wanted to…

Well, it wasn’t intended as a way to promote my services. I just wanted to demonstrate how the mechanism works in case someone wants to repair their own. Additionally, I would provide the technical drawing so that custom rivets could be made.

Yes but the prices are ok I would say. If I would ship this size it would around $20. I think that is ok?

I took a chisel, sharpened it on a grinding belt, held it against the rivet, and struck it with a hammer. I hit each notch twice, and everything was secure. Of course, you also need to fix the part in place.

Here are the old and new rivets.

I created a technical drawing of the original rivets, capturing as many of the original measurements as possible. I then gave the drawing to a friend, who machined them on a lathe for me.

Hi FBBO, I recently restored the trunk lock latch for a 1968-70 B-Body and possibly other models as well. I wanted to share the process in case someone finds it useful in the future. I completely disassembled the latch, zinc-plated the steel parts, and reassembled everything. However, keep in...

Thank you for your efforts. I'm still not sure if the dimensions are different from the ones I have. The shipping costs would be too expensive to take that risk. I am sorry Thanks yannik

Interested. Could you provide some measurements? Like I did on the pictures? Would be nice.

Do you have Pictures?

Would be awesome if you could share them. Maybe where I can see the buckets and the headrest on one picture

I found some repops but I need a proof that it would fit the original style. I bought some reproduction arm rests and well, I will not install them. They are just ugly. Looks like plastic

Hi FBBO, Has anyone here purchased a new pair of headrests? I’m curious to know if they match the original style. I still have the original vinyl on my bucket seats, but my current headrests aren’t in great condition. I’m considering buying new ones, but I’m unsure if they’d fit well with the...

Hi FBBO, does anyone has experience with https://arizonaparts.com/? They have some parts I need but never heard something about them. Thanks Yannik
