Great summary Dave.  I'll be needing that hose and clamps for the roadster.   Used to get hose at the local one-man repair shop a few blocks away.  Gettin' too old!  frank

Gates part #24034 - Comes in variety of prices from $53 on ebay to $33 on amazon and $36 at Jegs.(for one) But looks like Rock Auto sells them in 3 packs for 27.69 each.

When I got the hose that's on there now, I had to go to back rack of the parts store with a tape measure.....after they insisted that they needed to look up the car model and year...

Dave,

I really like the trunk on your car.  Was that original when you got the car or did you add it.  I didn't notice it in past posts.  Very Nice.!!

Was there, and the paint and pinstripe and faded accordingly. I have even used when I have ran up to the gas station (just because). I have collected few old treasures from the farm to throw in there for shows.

Dave/Chet,  Re: trunk.  not to butt in, butt...  from AACA.  Trunk intrigued me from the get-go.

Tom, thanks for the offer on the clamps.  I won't be doing anything for another 6 months.  I'll check Dave's website, too.

No problem , I could not find that proper wire clamps when I was looking . So bought a pile of NOS stock . Ted pm me with exact O.D. ,as they do not have much adjustment in . Also mine are varying in finish , some rust , but do have straight slot screw . Give size and quantity , I'll send you pic of what I have .

Stole from Franks link........

Very Cool !!!  Now I have another thing to keep an eye out for.  Kari-Keen  I like the one in the ad with the spear tire behind the trunk.  It looks like the spear folds down like yours does ?  What a great old survivor.

Few things to report. Been scratching away at the parts needed to continue to make er original again. Looking for some warm weather and dry a ground ( farm testing, skipping the road for now) to convert back to an original vacuum canister.

Been cleaning up and inspecting the original base I got the other fall. Its about ready to go in.


Finally ordered the wiring harness, might be here in 6 to 10 weeks lol. Ended up going with Ynz. This should get me going again...



chetbrz

Dave, let us know what you think of the wire harness.  I need to order one for my car but I am just not there yet.  Do they give you the option for adding wiring for turn signals?

Yes. Ynz had options for add on's. They also offer lifetime support for their customers.

Other vendor info. Not ripping them, just my reasons for not choosing to use them.

I tried called harnesses unlimited. They don't/won't answer their phone (leave a message only) or take web orders. Mail order forms only. I didn't like not being able to ask questions or get confirmations.

Called Rhode Island. Sounded like a quality shop, but I would have had to tag and send my harness to them, for them to model a new one. More time and effort than I wanted to spend. Think she said after all of that if you didn't like the price they would send the harness back no cost.

Ynz answered their phone, answered questions, have done a 29 sedan before, offer lifetime support and will take a CC order over the phone. Winner....

Will update with pictures and install when it arrives.
