well found somone with an original used assy. Asking if he will sell..not sure how to send you pics.  

Has anyone come up with a good repo or any good originals out there available to buy? Who has when they want to sell

Hi All,  Thanks for you input.  Does anyone have a few photo's of the early hub?  Not on a car, but lose?

Thanks

Cory

hey Corey I don't know how to post pictures here but I have a picture of my 2 hubs next to each other.

Jbarela,
Are you referring to Big Jim Colwes, as I used to call him ?
If so, he came to my place in Utah for #137.
It had a prop rod hood.
Car was also a special order from Shelby with weird shit, documented.
There is a video of that car because it was so original, had factory markings all over it.
If you bought your prop rod >> from Big Jim, I would highly "assume" it was patterned off that car.
Respectfully,
John

I know its an old post but just found my rod, its 30.5 inches and 5/16 thick.Instead of a spring there is a metal wash welded to the rod with a plastic bushing that goes through the rad support and a plastic washer for the back side with a cotter pin. How about the actual bolt that holds the rod down at the other end? seen a pic that its a grade five bolt with an O in the middle of the grade marks. That would be tough to find.

Your the best! Thank you very much.

I have one of the last repro spare tire covers offered in this group from years ago and need to know what tire size to buy so that the cover fits the tire perfect. Thank you for the help!

have you found any yet

Thanks for the feedback!! Decided to not let them touch the face. I see now looking at the axles they are machined with small grooves. It was really noted to me versus saying it needs to be done or that it was a bad issue. Now the are off to shelby parts n restoration to get restored. Thanks again

Hello all...I need some help/advise.
I had two sets of axles inspected. I lucked out as only one axel from each set was good. So i have a good set of axles now to use. The question I have, as I am restoring the rear end for show purposes the rear end shop told me that the face of the axles are not completely flat. they would remove the studs and I guess , just lathe face of it. The shop said it was probably factory that way , but noted it to me as they said the rim could not perfectly sit flat on it. That is important information to me.However, I do not know if they lay the face of it.If that's going to ruin the axle's appearance for The purpose of show? I am concerned that if they do this , they will ruin the face and appearance of it. I will be sending them to Shelby parts and restoration to be restored after that which i'm assuming is just replating the face and maybe new studs or replating the studs. I know this is a tiny tidbit, that most people won't care about.It's just the details that matter. Any advice and help would be appreciated

I am looking for a friend's car..not a clone!

Shoot me some pics of what you have and price. I believe he is looking for 2 rims.

Thanks you guys!
