KeymasterSome of us love to browse the online auction and for sale sites in search of special Custom Car parts, products and complete cars. We already have a CCC-Thread going for complete Custom Cars, or Project cars For Sale on these online sites, lets start a thread on just parts.
Custom Car parts that are hard to find, or that you know somebody who his working on a project might need them, or just like looking at. You might help somebody who is looking for these special parts, but have no time looking around for them online, or just did not look in the right place.
Please keep it Custom Car related only.Lets start with one that Wolf just send me.
A set of those wonderful Calnevar Hubcaps that are used on so many customs from the early 1950’s.
Enjoy the beauty of Customizing

ParticipantHere is a set of Appleton spotlights , the ad says 112 but does not show the stamping and all 112 were not stamped , I never seen 112:s with Firestone handles either but they interchange . My guess is that Appleton company manufactured spotlights for Firestone to sell at the same place as tires to broaden their sales but I have no idea really , the handles says Firestone and if that was a reason for unstamped bucket that could very well be so that Firestone could sell it as their own spotlight !

ParticipantHere is a set of probably left over dummy brackets , these fit on Appletons spotlights and is unused have some “meat” to grind off and fit them to the A-pillar . I have seen auctions of separate Appleton brackets but it is uncommon to find the elusive right A-pillar bracket since most of them were assembled to the driver side A-pillar . Each Dummyspot comes with a left and right bracket so buying a pair result in two left and two right brackets , the Arms could be used for mounting the Appleton buckets and the dummy housings could be cut and used as bullits , LOL !! If you don’t want to mess with that , this auction is perfect for you getting a left and right bracket for your Appletons !

ParticipantHere is one of the most ridiculously hard dressup items you can find , a option steering wheel , very common to see in old customs and a must for the traditional custom car aficionado if you have a -49-51 Ford . This steering wheel have the cone or a spline , I have not figured out if it was conical fit in -49 and splie in -50-51 , if this one was present then I don’t know since its known as a Crestline steering wheel and Crestline was a luxury model that came in 1950 so it can be as it was with often referd to the Mercury Monteray steering wheel but it is present in 1949 Mercury option catalog as a option steering wheel and I found a factory FoMoCo promo on youtube that shows a 1949 Mercury with the Option steeringwheel so I don’t know . Then there is the aftermarket Crestline steering wheel advertised and sold as a dressup steering wheel . could be the same deal as the teardrop skirts , both sold as a 1939-40 Ford option and as aftermarket for any car ?
