I live in France and bought my car in 2016 in Los Angeles I did 800 miles and found some jobs that needed doing to improve the car. My shipper finally pulled the car out of the garage I had left it with in February 2019 and shipped it over. They had invoiced me, I had paid them and they must have forgotten the work as when I got it here nothing had been done so it looks like I am going to have to buy the parts and ship them over. I have a 1954 Sedan Delivery which should have had some work done in LA but although charged for the work they forgot to actually do it.
The first thing is I need to bring the brakes from under the floor to fit on to the firewall does anyone do a kit to do this? Second thing I will need is a steering box reconditioned preferred. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 6,378 Ex Hall Monitor | | Ex Hall Monitor Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 6,378 | I can see why you posted this here. Some folks call a sedan delivery a truck and some don't and you're looking for parts. I think you'll get a larger audience in General Truck Talk or Panels & Burbs but it's not a solid fit in either of those either. Don't be disappointed if it gets moved again. We'll find a good home for it. I'll try GTT first.

1951-1954 (maybe 1955st) used the same master cylinder.
Would that replacement mount incorrectly in 1954? | | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 9,115 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 9,115 | You may get some answers from these folks.
