Great thanks Jan!

Hey Guys, I tired searching for some information on how to take the rear brake drum off of my 22' touring but have come up short. How does the main hub come apart? I take it after removing the bolts from the spokes to the drum, but how does the hub come off of the drum and spokes? this has the keyway cut into it. Any suggestions? Thanks! Shawn

I received it! Thanks again dave, i appreciate it.

Great I appreciate it, that will do just fine. Cheers SHawn

anyone able to help me out here?

Hey Guys I hate to ask but does anyone have a copy of the wiring diagram for my 22' I have all the manuals and books however i dont have them with me they are at the place where my vehical is being restored. I am trying to order new wiring for it just dont know what i need. here is my email is someone could email it to me that would be awesome! Thanks guys Shawn shawn_peaire@cogeco.ca

Great new info guys! Ill have a look at that site and see if thats the way to go. Like i said my Aunt has a nickel plating business so this route might be drastically cheaper, and if that company can make these reflectors 85% reflective rate without tarnishing.... thats kinda a no brainer... I appreciate everything here guys!

got a quote for the reflectors to be re-silvered, 280 a pair. Thats taking them as is and returning ready to go... I think thats really steep or is that my thriftyness comming into play? what you guys think?

well i tried polishing them, but with not much luck. The parts that werent badly tarnished came out decent, just the parts that are really bad pretty much stayed the same. With that assumption i believe that the plating just isnt there anymore to polish. It looks more of a brass colour then your typical silver tarnish. There is a product made by Caswell Up here in canada, that its a cream that you put on and by the electrostatic energy created it plates the silver from the cream to the surface. I am going to try that and see if it works. I dont want to spend a lot of money just yet on them. Other expenses to worry about on the car over the little things... your input everyone is greatly appreciated. Shawn

Thanks Jan, Ill be attempting to polish them tomorrow.

Great! Thanks for the advice, ill try on polishing them this week, I have a napa parts store not that far from me. And ill get the trim rings Off to my Aunt to Plate. Thanks again everyone for your input. If polishing doesnt work, ill have them re silvered Cheers Shawn

OK i just would like to confirm again that the trim ring bezzles for the headlights are indeed painted and note plated? or was it an option as to what was plated for the headlight rings.

Hrmmm, so it looks like silver is really the correct way to go, but nickel is a comprable alternative? Interesting to know that the 22' had the adjustable sockets on them. I guess if push came to shove i could attempt to make them? Doesn't seem too compicated? anyone tried that? What about Any other car builders ie fords or GM's would they have used a similar setup for them? I know Fords are Like 10 to 1 times more popular then DB's.... Any thoughts? Shawn

I am short Three running board brackets on my 22' touring. I have two that i could repair and make them work, Thus leaving me with one short. Anyone Have one or 3 they are willing to part with? Shawn
