Chrysler has factories in Austria, producing the Voyager and PT Cruiser, the Buick plants were in Belgium: and Switzerland: :TU: :TU:
And again you're right, Erik..... Btw: thanks for the tips you send by email.... the 73 is running again.... :3gears: :TU: :TU:
Yeah, we are improving our online-repair-services here in the never-Netherlands...... :TU: But good to hear that you can hear her running again !!
say phil, what type of aluminum did you use to make your bumper fillers? did you also make the one that surrounds the license plate? i could use any info/measurements to try and make a set for my 75 le sabre.
Thanks Rob for posting the KPH speedo's picture. I don't understand why it's not graduated in miles like my former 76 Electra's speedo and all the 76 speedos I saw. It gives me hope to find one someday!
To make them, I used parts from 77" plates that were used on an old Harris offset printing press. The reason I used this is because it was free but I could have used aluminium that is used for window capping. I also used short fiber fiberglass (the fibers are invisible, it's similar to plastic but a bit stronger) to make it flatter. The result isn't perfect but it's not too bad considering the time and money I spent on them! The 75-76 fillers are different and are probably a bit harder to make because the tail lights do not extend all the way to the license plate (see pic). There was almost nothing of the old fillers left so I did everything including the part below the license plate.
Needing Ring and Pinion Gear Set for A 73 Buick electra I am looking for a new ring and pinion set for my 73 buick electra, and my ring gear size is 9 3/8. And I need a gear ratio to fit a 308. If anybody can help me please respond to me via e-mail @ Allen1450@wmconnect.com. Thanks.
