Re: 900 series coupe roadster, need parts

Hi all,

Thanks for the suggestions. A friend and I spent the day sorting parts, and got through about half of them. Some are guesses, will try and attach some pics.

The ride control system is somewhat similar to a 1933 frame I have for reference, and appears to be usable with some clean up. The chrome parts need work, the clips appear good, rods are slightly rusty, does anyone reproduce these parts?

Any sources for 900 chrome wiper motors? Once in awhile someone has a set on ebay, but for $2000!! I am going to send the Ride control parts to chrome plating, will hold off if there are any wiper motor parts available to send as well.

Is there anyone casting parts at a reasonable cost? The footrest in the rumble seat area has a bad side molding, the other side is identical and good, perfect for making a cast mold.

Finally, the brake cable systems are complete but rusty. The brackets and clips appear restorable if needed. . Should the cables be ordered from Merrit, and then the brackets and clips added.? Does anyone else make these units?

Thanks , Lee
