Which parts exactly? I have the '53 grill and front end parts, and I think I have 1 or two front brake drums still.

Hi Mike, I'm out of town for a week. Coincidentally, I'm staying in Detroit/Ypsilanti near the old Kaiser plant for a few days. I'll check on what I have when I get back. I think I have both front drums and backing plates.

Make sure you save the brake shoes as they are no longer available, I have been trying all over the place and no one has anything. I have to have my old shoes re-aligned at 25$ per shoe.

I have a set of new in box EIS 166 4 brake shoes.  Not sure if that's what you're looking for.

Henry, did you check with Willow Run KF Parts? I just got some shoes for the front end a couple months back.

Does anyone know if the EIS 166 brake shoes are for KF, and if so, what years/models? 

$40 plus shipping.

Thanks.   8)

Work on the HJ slowed down a bit recently, but this week I started placing the Buick motor int he car. I have it placed correctly right now with a hoist and a jack under the transmission. I had to cut some holes in the firewall and the trans tunnel to get it in there, but it's in! I have a friend who is pretty decent with sheetmetal who can make patch panels for the holes I cut. My hope is that it will end up looking fairly factory when done. Next I get to work on making some motor mounts and a transmission cross member.

Thanks Jesse

Hi Mike, sorry, things have been pretty busy for me the last month or so. This weekend I will finally have some time to go through and see what parts I have. I'll let you know.
