I noticed that one of the two seat backrest lower mounting brackets was missing and so I made one and welded it back on. I think I made a repro of the original, which seemed to be welded-on instead of spotwelded on. What does the correct original look like? Also, is there any kind of isolator...

This is a damaged '58 headlight switch bezel that I experimented on resilvering the outer rim. The inner portion that the switch nuts holds onto is broken off, however, you should be able to glue/caulk this bezel into place. It didn't turn out bad! I used real aluminum duct tape for the...

Correct original '58 wheel. One-year-only design with the wheel cover nubs and the four narrow slots. Front side is near mint; back side is pitted.

It's going to be harder to sell if you have to ship it because nobody is going to want to pay for the extra shipping cost for incorrect mismatched carbs. The manifold itself might bring about $200.

An extremely nice driver side parking light parking light housing for '58s. I think this is a repro, but seems to be very high quality. Chrome is show quality, however, there is a mar that affects about an area of about 1.5" x .5". Not a huge deal as I would still consider this piece to be...

Don't know if you need the grille or not, but be aware that the reproduction grille is incorrect. The perforations should be in a grid pattern, not in a stagger pattern. Don't know why it's so hard to get that little detail correct...

Wrong carbs, wrong air cleaner, and for being such an original car, what's up with the mechanical secondary carb linkage? Show us the proof of outlandish claims or shut up.
