asking 25 on the brackets. the interior trim is for around the winshield frame I think have to go look at it all againWhat do you want for the master cyl./booster & brackets?
What 73 & later interior trim?


Jegs has the Perf RPM #7101 for $131 + 'handling'.
E-bay has them 'Buy-it-now' from $99 ~ $135 & you still have shipping.

How about $80 to a board member? All threads are perfect. It was bolted to an engine & that's it.... never seen gas; never had a carb bolted to it. No stains, no grime.

01-11-2006, 10:33 PM
I will be there around lunchtime as well. Any interest in a set of 15x10 rally's w/325/50 drag radials on the rear, 15x6's on the front?

How much will you be asking and what lug style?

If the brackets will work on my 71' and SCOTI passes on them I might be interested.

theese are the brackets that bolt to the cab and booster not the actual booster mount bracket

That's what I'm looking for; the bracket that bolts to the firewall that the booster connects to. It should have the pivot for the connection between the brake pedal & the booster.

Primered 69 -- may have interest in the grill and swaybar brackets. I have a new regulator for passenger side--will bring it. At the time I did not know they were left and right. Should have clubbed that engineer along with the backup lenses. I have a stock alternator bracket also. Will throw all in truck with the rest.

I can't make it.

I'm sure you all saw the Poolville fire on TV yesterday's news...You can see it from my porch.

As soon as I get off work here at the fire station at 7AM, I'm going straight home to put on my volunteer fireman clothes and go relieve those guys. They've been up working all night straight.

I would like to thank bobvilla67 and his dad for letting us meet with our trucks and parts. They both are good ole Texans. It was good to meet fellow board members and I enjoyed talking and swapping with them all. As I said at the meet, if anything you bought or traded with me does not work out I will buy my part back. Am looking forward to the next get together.

TX Firefighter -- I sent the whole box of molding with Matt67350 -- sort thru what you want --- Matt knows the details.

shaneschevys
01-14-2006, 08:20 PM
I had a real good time today. Swaped a few parts & met a great group of guys. I look foward to doing it again in the future.

TX Firefighter hope every thing turned out well for you. You firefighters are doing a hell of a job fighting these grass fires.

Here are a few pics.
