Thanks Ray

I do have a correct old one. I dont know the costs involved in sending stuff back to the US for rebuild. I sent my Rally Pac tach back and that was OK. But a clutch disc is a lot heavier.

Besides Customs get all excited and want to charge you for getting your own stuff back.

I am receiving help from this forum on the matter.

Cheers

Mark

PS had to put my pic up as its you

+2 on Arizona Brake & Clutch!!!!! I had THE original 8 spring disc and pressure plate from my K engine and sent them both to them for rebuild, came back beutiful and perfect in every way!! as I recall both pieces were around $150.00 including shipping both ways, that was over 2 years ago. You will feel so much better like I do each time you drive your Kar with the original setup in it!!

Frank, Welcome to the HPMX!!!!

Marv has exact reproductions of the original Hipo solid lifter cam, (he has the lifters too) I bought the setup from him, and its in my Hipo engine which runs and sounds GREAT! It isn't a radical cam at all, some folks use the LeMans cam which Marv also has, but I personally think its too much cam for the street....

I had offered to share a copy of my new stencil with Brian Roberts (sorry, I forgot your user name) and your Email doesn't seem to work.

Please send me a pm or something and I'll send it your way.

Do you think its a 22F unit? not picking on the car, I'm just curious.

May be I'll buy it and put the K motor in it along with the marine manifolds! (LOL)

Just out of my curiosity what is the deal with the battery in this car? I've never seen one with Green caps.....

Guys, I think I am all set now on my wipers.

I will get the correct blade holders from the member on the VMF that has offered them to me, and order the flanged repros from Brant.

Thanks Again Brant!! (and also Thank You Mark!!)

Brant, I'm putting together anouther small order to send your way, and the '65 wiper arms will be part of it!!

Thanks Again for your GREAT service!!

OK, Thanks!!

I've got a real nice wheel if you stillneed one, still sporting original springtime yellow paint!

Thanks Brant!! Do you carry a decent quality repro of the '65 hooded/flanged arms? Drake?

Thanks Brant, This helps!

Now is there a close reproduction of this one for '65? and are they chrome/stainless (no satin finish like '66s?)

We have been trying to FINALLY learn how to post pictures for over an hour, and the brains of the family (my Wife) is stumped-she HAS read about how to do it but doesn't understand what to put where-any help would be appreciated, then we'll post the pics of the correct '65 Trico blade holders. Thanks!

I didn't mean to confuse the issue. Actually I have 2 issues: 1 being the BLADES themselves, but I have found the correct original stainless, flat, Tricos in 15" so I am set there.

Then I have descovered that I have incorrect/reproduction ARMS in that they have a "hood" on them right where they attach to the transmission on the cowl, and they are CHROME there, then go to a stainless finish for a few inches, then to a rather dull satin finish at the end where the BLADE attaches-I think these are more correct for a '66 but not 100% sure.

Stand by for the pictures of the correct blades I've found.

I still am unsure IF my July '65 car should have the "hood" or the smooth arms...

Brant, Thanks for the info as always!

Do we know when the change (in '65) was made from the smooth ends to the hooded ones? may be my car doesn't require the hooded...mine is Dearborn July 27th 1965 scheduled build date....

I've got pictures of the correct ones a member on the VMF sent me of the ones I'm going to buy-I'll bring them over today (Sunday) and now I'm finding out that the repro arms are not accurate either.

Brant, What it the difference between SDs wip-5 and wip-6? I'm told that the arms for my '65 should be chrome "hooded" type then stainless (shiney) to the blade...

Guys, I have located a set of blades from a member on the VMF where I also did a WTB post.

BUT,Now I find that I have an incorrect repro set of ARMS-they are correct in that they are the "hooded" type (chrome there) then they go to a stainless for a bit then to a satin finish-I am told original hooded '65s used chrome at the hooded part then went stainless (shiney) all the way to the blade.-Anyone got a decent set of correct arms? apparently the repros on the market including Scott Drake are not accurate. Thanks!

I want the White Citruen (sp)!! (LOL)

Thanks Charles!! Thats all I need to add one!
