Hi everyone. I had a frame off restoration done on my 70 442 convertible by Thornton in 2001. Made the mistake of selling it in 2021 and now have just bought it back. Looking to doing refurbishment of engine bay which will include rebuilding power brake booster(keeping original), replating of brake caliper brackets, alternator pulley/fan(clear zinc/silver), hood hinges(grey phosphate) etc. Years ago had done by Steve Gregori in CA which is now Brake Restoration, Inc by Mike Gibbons still in CA. He advertises in Journey with Olds. Did great work. Any other recommendations?
Looking for a place to get a power steering box rebuilt for a 1968 442 oldsmobile. Any suggestions will be helpful.
Does anyone have any recommendations for replacement door panels and interior trim pieces? I am looking for high quality parts as my 1970 Olds 442 is a full frame off restoration and I am intent on restoring it to its former glory.
I have been doing some research and found Legendary Auto Interiors. Has anyone used them in the past? Link - Custom Car Interiors and Upholstery from Legendary Auto Interiors – Legendary Auto Interiors
Please share any recommendations that you may have.
Thank you!
If you have the time and the money, Legendary is best. Frankly the others are lower quality - “flipper grade” in my witness, at least for seat upholstery.
Hector at Carhex, 626 488 5472, sells rebuilt fast ratio steering boxes that look factory fresh in appearance. Had one in a Buick GS and was very happy with it.
Good luck!
