  • the heat shrink tube in picture is Dorman 8' -2,4m 5/16 shrink to 5/32
    I am not satisfied with the grayish color so i am going to follow Chris lead and go to 3/8 shiny black pvc instead from YNZ
    Special Note .. The ends are extra long to be folded back inside when the hangers are closed

    • I had a chance to view Frank's #11 901 today. It's the oldest of the 4 901's I've personally viewed. It's in very good hands. I'm sure he'll be pleased when he gets it back.

          • Got some goods from overseas.
            The rugs are a Porsche color burgundy. They are warmer/darker that the photographs.
            Also, trunk rugs...
            And some expansive vinal that was supposed to be Targa top material.....
            I am an upholstery guy so don't ask about the quality It is too embarrassing.

            • Did not the SWB also have the hold down snaps at the rear edge of the handbrake carpet section? I do like the bordello burgundy however

              • hmmmmmmmmmmm.... that rings a bell
                i seem to remember such snaps but i don't remember which cars???
                I upholstered a lot of these cars back in 1970-1980.And I put all the screws and nails, etc. Were the factory did it.
                I just looked thru the cars on bring a trailer 1967 and 1868 Targas and have not found one that has placed the snaps...
                Maybe Eric will chime in he used to do upholstery as well....

ID:	9502 Working on a pedal cluster replacement to take my single MC to a dual MC system. Collected rusty parts over the past few swap meets.. I had to cut off the clutch pedal, found a workable replacement and just bought a new clutch pedal axle.. Looks like i have most of the other pieces. I will be using a BMW 2002 reservoir that will fit where the single MC reservoir fits on the SWBs

                            • I did this on my 67, also used the BMW reservoir, used a plastic spacer and longer bolt to secure the reservoir. Had to change the m/ cyl pushrod to later pushrod, and use a banjo to install the pressure switch.
