Laundry list of parts needed for the 72 X project...ASAP

Here is a recent post from Todd on the hood bumpers he offers

Adam I found another Hood latch grill support in better shape than the other two I will take a picture of it and posted to see if it is the correct one you need I do believe it's a 71/72 I did not have many 70 parts cars.

 

Adam here's a picture of the other support I found in the pictures you can see the difference with the placement of the hood pole rod we just have to figure out which one you need.

 

The blacker one is a 71/72 style

 

Adam,
I will be sending you one of my yellow/gray Hood insulation sets. I make them with the correct size hole. All the other sets available have too large a hole in the middle piece.

Also for the spare tire you need a Spare Tire Board, not a cover. I can get you one, but don't know if I can get one made using the correct material in the time frame you need. I got them made special for me. You really can't tell the differences once installed. Do you have all the associated pieces that go with the board? The threaded "J" rod for the G60-15 Tires is really long. I used to get them in a help kit and then throw away all the other parts in the kit. Then use the original pieces with the new rod. I might be able to get one of them too.

I can get the trunk mat as well. The new ones are not exactly like the originals, but that's all you can find now.

You need the curved "X" braces for 72 cars regardless if they had AC or non-AC.

The lower latch transmission is different, as is the holes for it, the 71/72 will have the shorter Fat end where the handle comes thru

My eyes were messing with me both of the ones on page 1 were 71/72

 

The hood latch support you need is number 1239184.

Adam, I have the rear hood bumpers, and power steering pump and brackets. Would you happen to know the part numbers that you want? None of my stuff is labeled and I'm not sure if its the ones you want/need. I have the hood latch support also if the others don't work out. I haven't figured out how to post pictures on the board from my phone but could text them to you or send them email with that information.

 

Adam,
I am sending the following parts;
Correct 70-72 Gray/Yellow hood insulation 3-piece set (The gray faces out when installed.)
72 Idle stop Solenoid with attached bracket
Jack handle/Lug Wrench (Needs painted black)
4 Large head Shoulder bolts for Bumper/Bumper braces
Correct Original Ribbed Window washer to Squirter Hoses (You will need to clean then up with Lacquer Thinner and then leave them sit for a few days before installation.
Original 72 Radiator hose plastic loop with clip, that would attach to the rad shroud.

and I will try to pick up the correct length Spare tire threaded "J" hook with large wingnut, for the G60x15 tires.

I've got a power steering pump and steering gear out of a 71 GS. I think I've also got a set of the '72 X braces.

 

the '71 power steering pump is the same as the non A.I.R. '72.

 

Adam, heading to the post office shortly Will PM tracking number. Custom box .

 

Did you get a Latch Center Bracket and Lever assembly yet? If not, I believe I have a really nice one here. (71/72)
Center Support, Bracket, Levers etc...….

 

Thank You, I see these referrals and really appreciate them!!
