Not Ranked
Thanks Larry. I ordered one of those after the lady told me that it was a chrome item. It was not chrome but rather a piece of aluminum rod stock
that was turned on a lathe with the turning marks still present. The keyhole
lock part was separately pressed in but the keyhole was not the right shape.
I sent it back. Aluminum does not look like chrome! CSX2047 was my daily
driver for five years back in my Navy days in La Jolla so I have memories of
that car that I'm trying to replicate in the ERA. The dash layout, the glovebox
knob, the gearshift lever with the syringe reverse lockout and other little
details on the original car have stuck with me all these years, so I am putting
these memories on the ERA. I even got a spare wheel hold down nut in cast
aluminum from Mickmate because I distinctly remember that oddball little
item! Now I'm pretty close...I think you guys on this site are probably the only
ones hip to our little obsession!
