Title: What parts are not reproduced
Post by: blown motor on April 28, 2023, 12:52:26 PM
What e body parts are not reproduced? I can think of lower passenger side dash trim on A/C cars and lower front valence trim on 72-4 Challengers.

A/C compressor hoses. You can get them restored but you have to have the original ones first.

I'd be glad to see some of the parts still available that no longer are now.
The ECS trunk mats and 340 exhaust manifold heat shield for a few examples.
One item desperately needed for a long time are decent 15x7 and 14x7 trim rings.

Man, if only,  I  have several bars, no brackets.
Rear shackles have been out for a while,  but don't look factory.   Maybe "Vans" will look better.

Rear sway bar bushings.
I ask & ask and always get, "they're out there". Then when I ask, "what supplier did you use, what's their part number", I get radio silence. When I say they're available I send a link with the reply.

@Jay Bee (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/jay-bee_351)  Really? My Challenger had new bushings when I bought it 11years ago.

@Rich G. (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/rich-g_641) do you need hoses? I have some and there was a car I saw today that had some.

"links" Yes..."bushings" No  :dunno:

Not those, I have them. The bushing I'm taking about goes inside the bracket that bolts to the frame rail. Thanks for trying though.

I can`t find the receipt for the par number I used but I just measured the bracket for width and height and ordered the correct one for a 3/4" bar, they are urethane instead of stock rubber but get them in black and I doubt anyone would know.

Locking gas cap for under the flip top fuel cap.  The originals are going for big money, surprised no one has done a repro with the popularity of the flip top cap.  They are on just about every challenger at the car shows...LOL

I guess the good news is that you can't see it unless you flip the cap open.

@cuda hunter (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/cuda-hunter_176), I saw the M46 scoops listed in your response before I saw who it was.  I knew without looking that it was you  :)

My understanding they were not designed to be serviceable. Having said that i used a generic energy suspension bushing based on diameter and modified the mount to be bolted not welded so they can be serviced again. Not original but ...
