JohnD1956 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 In the red area is the steering column and the steering box. Not too far away is the brake proportioning valve. Since you have ready access, have you laid it back in place to see if it was meant to be like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buicknutty Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Sebastian, that are you've marked looks like where the hood hinges mount. Its' hard to reference it visually, as your car is apart, and mine isn't, but that is what I think it is. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oside_Dude Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Keep up the great work on your car! These cars bring back lots of memories. My parents had a 2-door 1969 Electra when I was young. We traveled everywhere in that car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnD1956 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) I know you have not asked, but I just wanted to point out a small piece that you want to save. See the part at the arrow in your picture below. It is a spark plug wire guide that is no longer available today. It should have a narrow hole going top to bottom and that hole is so it slides onto the tall peg that is part of the valve cover bolt. 2 wire guides are hard to find. 3 wire ones are plentiful. They get brittle with age, so a word of warning to handle gently. Edited August 13, 2016 by JohnD1956 (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sebastienbuick Posted August 23, 2016 Author Share Posted August 23, 2016 Hello everyone, I have a small question.if you know all the Electra 225 Custom 1969 was equipped with air conditioning?because I do not know if it's a becaufe was sold new in France, but I do not have air conditioning .I have therefore not the same fan assembly and I have a fan has 4 palles instead of 5.thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnD1956 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Airconditioning was an option in 1969. I have seen a few Electras without it. Mostly convertibles though. You probably do not have a fan clutch either then. I think that is easy to find a 5 blade fan and the clutches are still available new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
