Extra Parts from 59

[303Radar]

I don't quite remember where in the 59 these came from.
I just know I won't be using them.
Input on what they are and possible value is appreciated.

 

[303Radar]

Was on the core support if I recall correctly.

First two pics are of a voltage regulator. I have no idea what what it might be worth to someone. You are able to buy reproduction regulators. What is the size of the shield in the 3rd photo? Was your car a 2 bbl? Resembles a heat shield that goes under the carb between the manifold and carb base?

Thanks! I thought it came from the rear. Are the bolts for the rear shocks?

Bolts are not familiar to me.

Bolts possibly for the shim pack adjustment . Add or remove shims as needed.

Not with that thread engagement.

I was thinking the shims could be added on either side of the plate sandwiched on upper a arm therefore bolts would not have to change in lenght. Don't remember what upper control mount looks like .I could be wrong.

Those bolt heads are drilled. Usually they are used where wire goes through the holes to tie to each other or some metal anchor to prevent loosening. I can't think or a place on a Chevy where that would be used.

With time to think about it, the bolts are used on the Jag rear to mount the brakes to the housing.

Funny now that you pointed out the safety wire bolts, some where in my life i have actually encountered those ,and remembered being wired. Just don't recall on what.

One more bonus peice, this time from the interior:

59-60 Biscayne??

59-60 Biscayne??

59 El Camino, hopefully, that is all I have parts for.

 

[DonSSDD]

Same wheel in El Camino as in any 59 and I assume 60. El Camino interiors were biscayne so assume that’s is what this is. Not sure if biscayne and BelAir wheels were different , my 59 had an Impala wheel when I got it.

What year is this steering wheel? Between my Dad and I, we collected a few parts over time.

1959 and 1960 Impala
