Hey all. I am looking for a replacement short steering rod for my "67 chassis. As long as it is straight, I am happy.

No matter what I do, I cannot get the track rod end out of the one I have here. Hit it, plus gas, WD40 and the blow torch (red hot and still would not budge). Cheers

Interesting, I will see how Child of the 70's get on with the hunting first. I want to spray mine the same colour as the body, but shiny might be an alternative...!!

;D ;D ;-)up ;-)up

Got one.
Not sure if they are different from year to year?
But it's just over 19cm long. And as best as I can measure its 1.5cm internal diameter.

It's got clamps on each end. And one track rod in still in. Can't remember where I got it. Just one of those things I stockpiled !

Yours if you want it bud. No charge of course.


Will need the standard wire brush treatment. :-)

Got your email.
Don't be daft I don't want any payment for postage.
Just chuck a few coins in a charity tin at some point.

Should able to post it on Wednesday if that's ok?
