clheddier Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 I bought a Cadillac 370A Town Sedan in Texas/Tyler. The car is now in Germany and in very good condition. However, I need 2 parts: These are broken. 1) Latch handle for hood port doors 2)Bracket for the sun visor on the passenger side. I would be happy if you can give me an information where to find these parts. Many greetings from Germany. Clemens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edinmass Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 (edited) Your hood door latch is the early style, and you need to specify that when asking. Pete Sanders and Wayne Elsworth probably have the hood door latch. The visor bracket should be available from Pete. Do yourself a favor.....buy an entire set and replace them all, as they are all going to fail sooner or later.

edinmass Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 (edited) Captain Wayne is a good friend of mine for twenty years. Many people don’t know he took over for Captain Kangaroo. Just call me Mr. Green jeans! Edited November 15, 2021 by edinmass (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Restorer32 Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Pete Sanders would be my first call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yachtflame Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 I have the hood slides made in bronze and chrome plated for $100 each. I don’t have the visor bracket but if you send me one to copy, I can make a mold of it and cast them in bronze also. You could also try Pete Sanders at petesanders1100@gmail.com Capt.
