I am looking for the following <ORIGINAL> parts for a 1939 Cadillac Model 90 V16 7 Passenger Imperial Sedan:
1. Distributor caps. Brown Bakelite. Numbered 1 thru 8 and 9 thru 16. Desire original first version. (Parts #s are 1871832 for the left and 1871834 for the right.)
2. Correct original radiator cap.
3. Original jack and tools for trunk. (Also, looking for photos of original jack.)
4. Rear bumper gravel shield/muffler cover.
5. Radiator shutter assembly for late model V16 (does differ from V8 and early model V16).
6. Correct fan belt. (Also, looking for photos/verification of original fan belt.)
7. Running board mats. (I understand Gerald "Gerry" Capak of Vero Beach, FL had a run of these mats made. I learned Mr. Capak passed away in 2019. I have not been able to successfully find information on what may have happened to these mats--if they were sold to someone else.)
Please contact my husband, John Bassler @ 540.664.8169 if you have any of these parts that you wish to sell. Thank you!
Fan belt is a Gates 3510. It is 21/32" X 51", available in auto parts stores. Nothing special about the radiator cap, same as all V-8 39 and 40 caps. All the rest on your list is on the very difficult to obtain list.
