I need parts! 1956 Cadillac 6219X

[RayRay]

Looking for someone who has a parts car the same (1956 Cadillac 6219X) or similar to the one I have in order to purchase parts from as well as send me pictures before the part I need is removed. The reason being is that I acquired this project halfway through and I am missing quite a few parts and since I didn't disassemble the car I would like pictures just to use for reference.
  i am going to start with a picture in which I know I need some brake components including one or two brackets. I have the brake rod that goes through the firewall for the pedal. If anyone has the parts that are missing send pics and prices. If you have an entire car that you'll sell me parts from I will see what else I need and maybe even place orders weekly if the price is right. Thanks for any help!

Is this something you need? I also have a restored Morraine brake booster unit.

That is the rod that I do have. Basically I need the parts that go from the rod coming out of the booster to the rod to the brake pedal which is what you're showing. I also need a good picture of it complete and put together. Thank you for the offer and response though.

If you have the shop manual, there is a small image from the linkage, at page 7-9

Found it, so it looks like I need what's circled, the bracket and rod. Anyone got these? Thanks for leading me in the right direction!

I may have a spare rod, but will have to do some digging. I wonder if the rod would be any different in a Moraine unit when compared to a Bendix? Anyone know? If I still have that core I seem to recall it being a Moraine unit. Don't think there was a bracket though. Clay/Lexi

It's the same part number, no matter if the system is a Moraine or Bendix.

Roger thank you. I should have looked it up. That certainly makes sense. Clay/Lexi

That would be awesome if you had the rod, I'm sure I'll eventually find someone with the bracket. If you could send a picture and a price if in fact you can find it that would be great. Thank you!

These are the two rods and bracket for your 56. They came out of a Sedan de Ville. Will these work for you? The short rod is 13 inches and the longer one is 15 inches with the hollow end threaded to fit the rod on the booster.

Go with Frank's stuff, as he has both parts and cheaper for shipping. Have met and dealt with Frank and have no hesitation in recommending him. Should his parts for some reason don't work out, let me know and I will go on a hunt and see what I got here. Clay/Lexi

I received the parts and they're perfect! Thanks again.
