Everything I can find says to get the manufacturer's part number off the unit you are replacing. I've got the Chevy part number from the assembly manual but can't find a cross reference anywhere. I've seen info on other series but not a TF Burb. My 58 originally came with barn doors that were swapped for the clamshell, so there aren't any parts to pull the info from.
Can anyone provide/confirm the correct model number of the part so I can order replacements from Pullman?
On a related note, does anyone in the Kansas City area know of a shop that can make the cables? They aren't there either.
Thanks
Larry

Thanks

The part is made by Pullman. It has a part no. of 105-A. Below that are the numbers 9-111B. Hope that this helps. By the way, the strap on mine looks a bit iffy so let me know what you find out.

Hooah!! Thanks for the info. I'll get a set of replacements form Pullman. Money is tight at the moment so it might be a little while. If I get a big tax refund, maybe I'll be able to convince my wife to let me do a little shopping. :-)
Thanks
