Thanks for the information regarding the Sunroof. Interesting to see how close toghether in the Automotive USA and Canada was..... who knows the future will be?

Thanks Robert for your comment and pictures. A nice T-Bird too and they do look similar to me. The steering wheel in mine was and extra if I recall correct. When dusting her off she started but the horn kept blowing. Teard off the centre and unplugged the contact. The fault was in the spokes as...

Your story is facinating and very similar to mine. I bought her in 1991, changed the automatic gearbox as that packed in. Drove her till 2000 and put her away for 22 years before bringing her out in daylight again. Funny thing about rust as the same has popped up tn the trunk. Rust on the left...

Thanks Mike for your good advice. Of course that would save time and money as I have all new parts for the 10" brakes and drum.

I guess so but you may ask for a quote from Federal Express. I have found them very serviceminded and quick off the mark. RockAuto use them and from them I have had some spares stocked up ready for the weather to warm up. Then it is easier to work outside.Here is our Aspen taken in Germany on...

The way we drive these rare birds 10" is more than enough. I will see if I simply move the brakes over to the 8 1/4".

I have learned the same from various sources. Good to hear and hopefully another member here have a set. Keep your fingers crossed. Take care and safe driving. Gunnar

Thanks a million for the update. We need more of friends like you. Keep up your good work. Regards Gunnar

Please check my friend and drop me a line regarding cost and packing. I presume they are in good nick. Payment thru Paypal if that works for you. Thanks a million in advance and what should we all do without you! Gunnar

Thanks for your information. Good to hear it will fit straight in apart from the differntial.

As I have laid my hands on a 8 1/4" rear axel for her I have had some valuable tips regarding swapping from 7 1/4". The axel is in fine fettle and complete. I know I have to have a shorter differential and that represent no problem as a friend of mine has the correct one here in Norway. But...

I have not yet made up my mind but I think 11" brakes may be the best. Pretty sure the 7 1/4" axel has 10". I will sort everything out this weekend. Spring brackets no problem over here and I would guess they have to be wider due to 1" wider axel. Thanks for your tip regarding backing plate. I...

If I recall right a Dodge Diplomat station wagon

Hi all of you members from an update from Scandinavia. My G22 1978 is slowly coming along during my slow restauration. Time does not permit me many days off to carry on. Having said that I had trouble with the instrument panel not working as it should. The voltage regulator packed in (what I...

Time for updates before winter sets in: I have found several other parts for the old girl. Thanks to Arizona Spares I found the Antenna control Box pluss several other small parts. Excellent service and helpful. Now to the radio again. It works splendid with the fixed antenna. No problems at...
