If you would Schonye, ask the sill polishers to put all that rubber compound in a little jar and mark it: "McCreary Tire Co., Indiana, PA". https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/laugh.gif

These slapper bars have a cool back story to them which I'll cover later on. Schonye did a great job on their restoration. They are pretty unique for Novas with rear sway bars in that they accommodate the sway bar instead of requiring it to be removed....

Email me your address Schonye and I'll get that lock out rod in the mail on Tuesday. I'll check on the price of that new Cadillac I've had my eye on and we'll work out a bill for Sam later!! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Sam, kinda neat to know that the slapper bars (and probably a lot of the other parts) came from your papa's store in Indiana!!

Sam,
Cool bars! Do you know the manufacturer?

Hey Dennis,

I concur https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif . There was no part # or manufactures label/marking to be found on them. Schonye says he hasn't seen these types before. I'll let you know if I unearth anything.

Their quality control is kinda unusual. The snubber adjustment tower is a well manufactured piece, but the mounting plates,(as you can plainly see) were hacked, and never dress ground leaving a pretty nasty looking torch cut. I had heard of these before, but these are the first I've ever seen. No name, or stamp anywhere. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif
If I'd have known about them back in the day, I'd have had a set on my deuce.
