  1. Yep Wayno, that's what mine looks like. Not sure kelmo got them from ebay, all I know is they shipped from Australia.
  2. Yours looks different. My window has a little catch on the frame that I had to notch around.
  3. The rubber from Australia that I got from ebay fits good and seals good. I just hope the quality of the rubber is just as good.
  4. So I got some new wing window rubber and want to install it without cutting it. I started trying to take the window out but can't seem to get it out. Any one had success with this that can walk me through it. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!
  5. I watched a video on YouTube where the guy used a dermal to v cut the cracks out and then filled them with great stuff. He sanded it smooth an then glued and vaccu formed vinyl down with a homade vaccu form machine that used a shop vac and it turned out great. The dash had a hell of allot more contour to it than a 521 dash. When I get the time I might take some test runs without the glue and see how tight and smooth I can get the vinyl.
  6. I talked to a guy at that place quoted me $1200 with shipping. I might try a high density foam with heat shrink vinyl over that.
  7. Looks like it had been pried off or beaten on. When the pulley is on a flat surface the keyhole shaft is bent to one side.
  8. The one that was on the motor when I bought the truck was bent exactly the same way. I was able to get it straight enough to where it stopped throwing the belt off but I would love to have one that doesn't wobble at all. I have been thinking about having one machined from aluminum or stainless.
  9. It's a 69 521 with the j13.
  10. I got pics and it looked ok in the pics so either they were not the same part or I just couldn't see that the shaft of they pulley was bent. But it is not subtle at all. Just sucks for everyone that wants to sell or buy parts that you can't trust what you are getting.
  11. Not really new to the car scene but my first foreign classic. I posted a add for a straight crank pulley and water pump pulley had one response. The pulley I received was so obviously bent it is rediculous. Paid $50 for a crank and fan pulley I know the crank pulley is fucked just looking at it, not sure about the fan pulley yet. Just feel like if you are knowingly selling broken shit do it somewhere else besides here, or not at all.
  12. How do people in good conscious sell broken shit on the Classifieds? I guess I put to much faith in people to be honest. Please people stop selling broken parts, I work hard for my money and don't want to spend it on over priced scrap metal.
