Title: WTB 37 LaSalle Opera Coupe front springs.
Post by: bpowell on December 24, 2019, 02:29:57 PM
Looking for not rusty coils for my 37-50.  I understand probably weak-but so are my rears.

Thanks BP

I think fellow member Rich Iannelli purchased new springs for the rear of his '37. With all of the race car spring makers out there, I'd check with some of them to see if you can have new springs wound.  I have a '37  Coupe but no extra springs.

I bought a pair for my 1941 67 Series from Eaton. They had them on the shelf at a very reasonable price. With shipping less than $300.      Harry

Thanks for the advice.

I did get new stock height springs from Eaton about 2 years ago. I finally got the car together-some of you know how that goes-and the springs I got are too strong. The free length is right, but when installed they compress the rebound bumpers.

I was looking for originals to compare to what I have.  I'm going to call Eaton and see what they think.

Thanks,

BP

      You and I have spoken or e mailed previously about some bumper guards you have that I would like to purchase so appreciate it if you'd e mail me at carlhungness@frontier.com or 812 273-2472. I cannot locate your e mail address but I also think you're the man whom I want to upholster my car.
Thanks, Carl Hungness

Hi Carl,

I'm sorry, but I am not the person you are looking for.

I am very certain you do not want me upholstering your car.
