Re: [SilverStreak] Info-Hinges and lenses



Ralph and Dick,
I sure am following and interested in the door hinge success or failure in 
the stainless. Please include me in your thoughts as I need a total of six 
hinges, two desperately. I sure want to be amoung those who would join your 
effort if you can find someone who can make them. I'd even settle for steel 
and just have it galvanized or something. I will never understand why 
Streamline used aluminized steel, and Silver Streak use the pot metal. It 
makes no sense why a 66 Streamline hinge looks new, and a 79 Silver Streak 
hinge is pretty but useless.

The rear trio tail light lenses and complete new assemblies are available. 
The entire assembly comes with the three lenses, red, clear, red with bulbs 
and wiring. Available open-back in chrome, or fully enclosed back, but only 
in gray. The seperate lenses are available in red and clear with the gasket 
but no screws. Those screws were a special long-shoulder to prevent over 
tightening.

I appreciated the Dietz info. "Truck-Lite 8934A is the current replacement 
for the amber Dietz (Signal Stat) clearance lights. 8934 is the red."

Thank you.
