Need help finding some items for my 71 GT-150
« on: March 04, 2018, 07:45:15 PM »
Hello everyone! I'm new to CGOAMN and am excited to be here. I have a 71 GT-150 and am in the process of fully restoring it. I am in need of some items that seem almost extent. Does anyone know where I can acquire an original style steering wheel? Mine is cracked in several places. Also, I am looking for two of the small metal Glastron badges (one that goes a the back, and the one for the under dash storage box lid. Does anyone make the plastic footballs? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Finally, when I bought my boat, I noticed that the bow decal was all chrome colored. Was this correct for the 71's, or should I just go back with the colored decals like I see on ebay? I can't seem to find an all chrome bow decal. I apologize if anyone has posted about these items previously, I searched but did not see any previous post.

Thanks to all,

Daniel

Welcome!

Sounds like a good project.  If your that far along looking for decals can’t be much remaining.

Check out this thread for a few of your bits requested:

As always... pictures will help.. I have this one from a 76 that I’m not going to use. I’m not sure it’s the same as yours.. and where are you from?  As far as I know the only badges you’ll have trouble finding is the small one.. the gt badge on the bow is more than likely just has the colors faded off and can be easily found also. EBAY and Arron can help with those.

Finding the original steering wheel won't be as easy ...
Search eBay from time to time, check Craigslist for cheap Glastrons that have wheels in good shape and offer to just buy wheel.
Also check Facebook, some one might have one there.
