Guest d3500ram Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 (edited) Thread 1 of 2:Hello folks... I salvaged 2 items from the scrap yard. Someone was going to throw these away, but I figured I would try to find a rightful home for them as someone must think they are useful. They seem to me to be very unique pieces that I would hope the enthusiasts and experts here may be able to at least help me at least identify the year and model. One is a chassis the other a differential. I am just going to list the photos with self identifying numbers. PLEASE ask me questions of which I can provide you more information if needed. If you need specific close- up photos, dimensions, etc... please request where needed as I would like to help you help me.My goal is to find homes for these items as I think they may be worth something to some one; I cringed at the fact that some one was going to throw them away. At the very least they could become some "lawn art" for an awesome antique store (or they may be worthless???) Below is the axle... chassis in another thread located here: http://forums.aaca.org/f169/salvaged-differential-chassis-need-help-iding-290279.htmlAxle- 266: 267: 268: 269: 270: 271: 272: 273: 274: Edited October 6, 2010 by d3500ram (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Silverghost Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 This is a very tough to ID indeed. The other problem is the rear-end gears are missing. About the only useful items here are the two brake assemblys ; if you knew what they were from ? Good Luck : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dandy Dave Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 It looks a lot like Buick. What size is the wheel measured to the outside, and how wide is it from the center to the center of the spokes. Also can you give me a brake drum diameter. Also, if you could give me an out side measurement of where the hub cap would fit, and threads per inch on the hub. Dandy Dave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Since the lug nut washer says "Buick", I would say it's from a Buick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandy Dave Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 I would agree that this rear, and the frame in the other posting go together. Dandy Dave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest d3500ram Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 UPDATE: I have not been very active and have received a smattering of interests in this, but the items have been picked up by an antique car gear-head who intends to put them to proper use. It took a while to finds the right home, but at least they did not wind up in the scrap pile.I appreciate everyone's input in helping me ID the parts in order to advertise. In the short time here, I did get a chance to wander the forums and photos. Y'all have a neat group here and I wish I had the time to get back to car tinkering again. My hobby interests right now do not include cars anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
