They will be selling reproduction brake drums for all '57 to '57 Chrysler products using either 11" or 12" brakes. Catalog price is $95 and availability is expected in October.

(57 Tqf) Hi, I've put on my site a page about throttle/ kickdown valves, throttle lever etc... Itsn't a fact page but rather an inquiry page !! I'm not sure of what i assume about position of the k.d valve. I've taken some measurements of the throttle lever according to the position of the k.d valve. Best is to look at pics (and text). Let me know if i'm right or wrong . http://www.ifrance.com/c-i-f/fvb.htm -- Philippe COURANT (Pau, France)- Webmaster des sites ACCF et C-I-F Imperial 1957 Crown convertible Buick 1996 Roadmaster wagon - American Car Club de France (ACCF) : http://www.accf.com - Chrysler Imperial France (C-I-F) : http://www.ifrance.com/c-i-f - Cadillac " Standard of Excellence " : http://www.ifrance.com/accf-cad - SportsCars : http://www.ifrance.com/accf-sprtcar ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Message: 3 Date: Sat, 21 Jun 2003 10:15:41 -0700 (PDT) From: John Spiers <spiers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: 300K Parts Car available Hey group- I have a 300K hardtop parts car that I will need to find a new home for within a month or so. The car is in Port St. Lucie, Florida, about 60 miles north of West Palm Beach. I do not have the VIN with me at the moment. There is no title. It has a white/red interior, power driver's seat, manual reclining (works) pass seat, AM radio, air, p/w. The car has the following parts removed already: engine/trans (orig 360/Torqueflite- both gone before I got it) radiator a/c parts driver's door power window motors door panels Overall condition is poor. Side & rear glass is very good. The car has surface rust and some rust thru around the rear rocker panels. The trunk lid is unusable. There is a small amount of rust thru on the passenger floor and trunk floor. There are small dents here & there, but most of the passenger rear quarter is pushed in 1-2". E-mail me with your photo requests. The car is about an hour from me, and I'll be there this afternoon. Preferably, I'd like to have it go all at once. I think it should bring $150 or so. I am open to offers. Thanks. John Spiers, Lake Worth, Florida --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo! DSL - Now only $29.95 per month!

It's essentially a drop-in replacement for the '66 valve body. I now have part-throttle kickdown. It's great!
