1965,1966,1967 3/8 Rwd Cadillac Engine Oil Level Indicator,dipstick, New on 2040-parts.com

DESCRIPTION
This is a new reproduction oil dipstick indicator for the 1965 , 1966 and 1967 Cadillacs with the 429 cubic inch engine, this is not for the Eldorado.  These are hand made to look and work like the original indicator.    They are for the proper 3/8 tube size that we also make and is sold separately or in a set with a discount. This is just the indicator. 

The handle is the NOT same tube style loop but is made with the flat style from the 65-66 with the 7/16 tube, with the proper dimensions on top. The tube stop is NOT  the same as THE ORIGINAL. The 3/8 tubes had a bell shaped stop, the cost of tooling to replicate these on a limited quantity is too great at this time. The stop we use is the same as the 65-66 engines with the 7/16 tubes. The FULL and ADD indicators are clearly marked (the size and font may vary slightly as we use common stamps for all years to reduce tooling costs) These are made from 1075 spring steel and then heat treated to resist bending as the originals. This is a very difficult and labor intensive project to undertake but we feel the results are worth the effort.

Indicators vary widely throughout the fifties and sixties as do the tubes that go in the engine. The year of the engine and more importantly the oil pan used will determine the indicator needed.

PARTS CARS
Chip is occasionally looking for 1950-1970 Cadillac’s that we can use for parts. We prefer cars with complete drive trains, condition of bodies, glass, and interior are secondary.  We are located near Detroit and prefer cars in the upper Midwest. We also buy complete engine assemblies.  If you are selling or know of a reasonably priced car please feel free to contact us.

Because of storage limitations we do not inventory, sheetmetal, seats, glass, interior door panels, and frames. If we do run across these items in usable condition they will be listed and sold.
