Unfortunately I have not found how to search in the "Swap Meet" to find these items. Is there a way to do a search to find items For Sale in the Swap Meet or am I looking in the wrong place?

You will see at the left side a box that will say “All Forums” click on that box and scroll down to Swap Meet Parts Wanted. Then click search after entering what your searching for.

Some sellers check that forum regularly. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 481 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 481 | Martin and Tim,
Thank you. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2006 Posts: 693 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jun 2006 Posts: 693 | this is sort of obvious, but I got my whole set on eBay... | | | | | Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 481 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 481 | Tom,
O really? I did find the jack hold-down plate and spring on ebay yesterday for $62.00. I have the jack and hold-down plate, but no spring, tire iron or lug wrench. Don't really want to fork over $62,00 for a spring, but might end up doing that.

The old screen door springs were about that size. George They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though.

Yes, I am sure I can find 'a spring' at the hardware store. My restoration is SO close to original I don't want to blow it on a spring, but thanks for your suggestion.
