Henrik has found quite a cache of NOS Granada/Monarch/Versailles turn signal / wiper switch levers. If you have ever tried to find a replacement, you probably think this is pretty good news. They've been obsolete for years. The guy is in Houston and has a good quantity of all of the versions of the lever: non/tilt-non/intermittent, tilt/non-intermittent, and tilt/intermittent. Henrik was there in person and has seen the items. The guy sells them on eBay, you'll find them in the eBay Stores section of eBay Motors, seller is autoparts713. Here is a pic. The first one Henrik bought on eBay was shipped to me. It arrived today, it's perfect and NOS Ford.  Item is listed as 76-80 FORD GRANADA WIPER WASHER SWITCH NEW OEM |

Yes - Henrik sent me an email and he's sending me one. Mine has been welded on the tab that holds the screw into the column. The last time these were available from Ford, they were worth $127.

According to Henrik, these things are packed in bulk - sounded like dozens, loose in a cardboard box. Apparently they were to have been shipped to Mexico when they became obsolete in US parts inventory. These didn't make it across the Rio Grande. Nice condition, aren't they? Gary, I picked it up at Purolator. It arrived in perfect condition. Very happy to have this. Like I said, mine has been welded on the scew hole. Jeff. |

Not yet - we at my parents this weekend. I just got the CD on Friday.
I've been pretty busy - selling a lot of stuff on Ebay and my Impala is at the body shop having the quarter panels done.
Jeff.

yep ;D it took 5min to install btw - good to see you're able to log back on the board. I've got a hunch that because you were constantly logging in from different locations you were logging multiple IP addresses (address of your computer, but same computer). The site may have identified you as spam and refused login. However, now that you are back home, you are back to your normal location(s). |
