Must be a hell of an issue sorry good luck to you.... I heard years ago the plant was in New Mexico somewhere that’s the only thing I know about them I also understand a good machine shop can make you one ..As time goes on it gets a little bit difficult to fine arts for these things.. bob

Excellent thanks for sharing and yes I’m sure most of us would rather be in the R model unfortunately time goes on.... bob

The more I think about it it seems like some of them had some sort of a reduction gear unit between the cable and the gauge .... bob

Excellent man thanks for keeping us posted... bob

OK Skippy I have made a decision you need to hurry up and finish the truck and come over here and restore mine that way I can just fire up a cigar and drive it beautiful job on the dashboard I painted a 62 impala the same color back in 1973 keep up the good work... bob

Well I’m sure a lot of you remember Kurt Schilling had an ankle like that and nobody seem to care just shoot them with painkillers and send him back to the diamond......bob

Very interesting information thanks for sharing I was told a few years ago according to my Chassis number mine is supposed to be a single axle but it is a twin drive apparently somebody came along later to put those rear ends in... bob

OK I can appreciate that God love ya The first time I saw one was about 1978 guy did it with an R model it was pretty impressive that.... A childhood pal of mine builds T buckets and coupes ground restoration and custom drivelines of course Nobody wants to drive around at 40 miles an hour and no air-conditioning ha ha Ha any rate he takes about a year On these cars Then sells them for around 80,000. Bob

I even went as far as making smart ass remarks to every guy that walked by me it didn’t even look at me Ha ha ha couldn’t resist but walking around making smart ass remarks to all of them oh look there’s another fat ass snob lol Thought at least some of you would appreciate that Frankly I don’t understand anything they do... bob
