I'm wrecking an orange '76 244 over the next week or so. A lot of the panels are bad with rust and paint flaking off and the interior is pretty knackered but if there is anything that you need let me know.
Rob
Tail lights?
240Joe
What condition are you after? Are you after a particular brand? I'm going to keep the best ones but I'll have a look at what I've got.
Rob
I am always on the lookout for reasonably good tail lights to fit a 164. Not urgent, just a general EOI.

Check the brand. Cibie vs Hella lenses are not interchangeable.
240Joe
It turns out the 242 has Hella and the 244 has Cibie, so '75 vs '76 might be the change over date - ? Do you know what brand you're after Rob?
Rob
99% sure mine are cibie
Will check

Interested in the door trim mouldings if they're still there, the thin chrome style, and not beat up?
Trying to source replacements for my 1975 244

The car has gone now but I might have some in the shed. Which ones in particular are you after? All of the doors?
Where abouts are you?

Yeah all the doors. I'm in Hornsby.

Give Lupica Motor Repairs a call. That guy has a huge cache of old parts for our cars. Tell him Ryan sent you :)

Thanks for the tip
@Slowbrick :)

@Razoxane Sorry I can't find the trim in the shed. If I do find it I'll let you know.

Hey Joe, I know the car has gone but chasing switches, any will do, so I can repair/rebuild what I've got. Thanks Greg

Hi Joe
Could you look at the diff ratio. 3.91 : 1 would excite.
There will be a sticker or attached plate, email me if you need assistance.
Thanks, Anthony H

I'd think that if Joe had a 3.91 it would be on his race car

Chuck up a wanted ad @Anthony and hopefully someone will come out of the woodwork with one.

If Joe no longer has the diff or it's a different ratio, I have a 3.91 ratio rear end available.
240Joe
Oh hello, this is my thread with all these comments!
Are you still after switches @beema41? If you are which ones in particular, I have heaps!
Yes @Anthony I do still have the diff from the car, I'll check it out on the weekend.

Hi Joe,
I'm getting some switches from Angus but would love to have a few more to cover all the bases. Let me know what you want for them, I'm after the basic demister, hazard, seat belt, air conditioner, electric antenna, window isolation and window control, seat belt warning, bulbs and wiring looms are good too!
Cheers
