I am going through the process of rebuilding my car's doors. The front door window rear window guide has broken and I think it is causing the window to bind when it is being wound up. It has created other issues with alignment of the window. The photo below shows what it looks like. It has two rollers. A rep...

I am curious as to whether the cloth upholstery in an American Bonneville is the same or similar to the material used on our Canadian built Grande Parisienne? The seats in my Grande Parisienne 4 door hardtop are worn and sun damaged and will need redoing and I know that I can source the cloth for a Bonnevi...

Hi guys. Have a question about a front split bench seat. Another member offer one to me a while back but to ship to Australia out of Vancouver was $2500+. I have found a seat at Franks Pontiac parts in CA, but it's out of an American Pontiac. I know they are different, wider, but would the tracks be a similar...

Hi guys over the last few weeks I've been trying make the old yellow barge more drivable as i'm planning to pull my 51 Airstream Flying cloud around the province for my work as an Air Attack guy on forest fires. (not a busy season so far) So far I've messed with the carb quite a bit. The power piston in th...

So, thanks very much to the generosity of 66GrandeGuy I can start on my conversion from oil and temperature lights to gauges. He sent me a standard cluster to put side by side the other one so I can sort out the wiring, going from a printed circuit on a Canadian built car to a US built car with individual wir...

When I push on the knob it doesn't stay in. The socket works fine as I've used it for GPS and other electronics, no problem. Does anybody have a spare know with coil for a 67 Parisienne? Cheers, Leo

So I have the console that I received from Carl all apart, and I'm anxious to attempt to bring it back to hopefully like new condition. Overall, the console is in very nice condition. But as with anything this old, it'll need some new parts to make it look new again. But without a doubt, I have a very good st...

Thanks to Roger, I now have a B Body 4 way power bucket seat assembly to play with! Date code 11 - 65 B. 1966 big car? A good starting point for a restoration, and so far I've gotten the actuators and cables cleaned and greased. I have the Trans cleaned and lubed. Like in my previous 6 way power seat post, a...

A pictorial for those who have never seen the optional 66 reclining passenger seat. In many years of hunting for rare options for these cars, I would say this is one of the rarest I've found (or mostly NOT found!) I removed one from my parts car the other night and dismantled it in preparation to send it to...

I'd like to re do the woodgrain panels on my 66 console I got from Carl, and I see that there is replacement brushed stainless inserts available a-la 67 Impala SS and CP 2+2, Grande. Just curious as to how they are applied? Do I pull up the woodgrain inserts first, or do the new panels sit right on top? The or...

My Strato Bench is at the upholstery shop. It's from a 67 Caprice but I'm changing it to a 66 style with no seat back latches. Anyway, when the upholsterer took the seat back off, this was inside. Would have been a nice car! I got the seat from Cheviac. He may see this and chime in, maybe he still has the car. I...

I'm wondering about the dash on a 67 car with console. In particular, the block off for the shift indicator above the column. Is it added in over the original column shift indicator opening? Or is the console car a different dash bezel? Here's a console dash, what is over the indicator, a wood grained a...

Does someone have a trunk mat from a 66 Parisienne or GP that they know to be original? If so, can I get a picture posted so I can see what pattern it is? It's been so long I forget how it looks.
