ShawnLancaster Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 I've got a few parts I'm trying a few people to help identify. They include a hardtop for a British? car, a Chevrolet car/wagon tent?, Steering column and two bumpers. Thanks in advance for any help.

drwatson Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 For the bumper pair, the upper one looks like Karman Ghia front about 1970/71, maybe more years. Not sure about lower of the two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1912Staver Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 The hardtop looks like it is probably a factory option top rather than aftermarket. Factory tops are reasonably desirable , and sell for decent money; aftermarket tops have little value these days. Need some better photos to pin down an ID, but I would start with Austin Healy. Need a good side on profile photo. Greg in Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Wetherbee Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 The top reminds me of one for a Sunbeam Alpine but Greg is right that it could be for any of those little roadsters of that era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Wetherbee Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Is there a steering box on the other end of the column? That might be better for ID'ing it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnLancaster Posted July 10, 2019 Author Share Posted July 10, 2019 Thanks for the notes .I'll see if I can get some better pics of the hardtop and the steering column next week and I'll post. Here's a rear pic of the bumpers to help ID the other one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunsmoke Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 I'm guessing 1931 Chrysler CD8 for the steering wheel, here is mine, note three spokes, same controls, double ring around horn, grooves in rim, etc. Hub diameter seems smaller, so may be for the 6-cyl Chrysler CM6.

keiser31 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Not for the CM6. The CM6 item is the same as 1931 Dodge, DeSoto and Plymouth item. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Sunbeam Alpine, doesnt have the correct rear latches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Schramm Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Just a guess, but the top looks similar to a hardtop for a 50's Corvette. Probably close, but no cigar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
