  1. There is some kind of clip or something that the screw goes into per Dan Booth but you may be right I can send a picture but short of taking it fully apart right now it may be hard to see in any event. Dan Booth is sending me two new runners which is what I believe they’re called but he said they’re a headache to put in, but we’ll see. I’m not ruling out trying to glue it or hack some kind of repair if there are any ideas out there. Thank you again appreciate it.,
  2. Where would the pop rivet end connect into?
  3. Frame on my driver's side window has separated It appears That there is a screw that anchors the right side of the frame top to the back side piece. It looks like the screw Has nothing left to anchor into and the inside rubber piece or wherever it is supposed to anchor is damaged. Is there anyway to effect a repair? Are there replacement vent window assemblies out there? I don't see any online but plan on contacting Dan booth tomorrow Any help would be greatly appreciated and thank you

  9. Thanks very much I will have that checked out. Hope its not the guage as I don't see many out there. Appreciate your help.
  10. sorry , its the gas tank - Avanti parts biz is sending a new one that is not subject to fluctuation and also thinks it may need a second grounds wire.
  11. I just had the sending unit Purchase from Avanti parts Biz Last November A day ago. I also saw a sending unit on Studebaker Parts dot.com whiich is vastly different From the Avanti parts biz unit.Does does anybody know which one might be better or if there's another one out there that's better??? Please help and thanks.

    Update - I had a delay in getting a mechanic to put my sending unit in He finally did it 2 days ago and when I drove it home The gauge was Flipping between 1⁄2 to full and to 1⁄2 to full continuously I purchased the sending it from Avanti.Parts biz Could it be a faulty unit? This is frustrating.
  13. Thank you very much for your prompt response and help -I will probably put a tube running downward so it doesn’t spit up -currently having a problem with car overheating due to to fan relay not working right
  14. On my 1983 it has a small white plastic coolant overflow tank - there is on black hose connected to the radiator hose running from the tank with a plastic cap on it. The other end of the tank has no hose just an opening for the hose. Should there be a hose on that and does it function as an external drain to the ground Outside the car or should it be connected to something. Fyi There is an LT1 engine in this car if that makes a difference. Appreciate any help.or advise Thank you
