    72 oil system parts - can you still buy these?

    just taken the rhs rear quarter off for rust work etc... the hinge that has the oil tank strap requires replacing and the fixed oil overflow pipes in the inner wing are toast.
    are these still around as parts to buy new? can't find them listed

    John:

    I think you will have to cut these out of a donor car...they are NLA. Did you find a pristine qtr? I have an extra oil door/hinge if you need it. I also have a complete tank with oil door/pocket, but I wasn't necessarily planning on getting rid of the stuff. But send me an email with your needs.

    The hinge looks like it could be made. I have a 72 but not in front of me. Do those lines go straight into the console? If so maybe fitting AN fittings to the console, cut the rusted pieces and run the lines straight to the tank? I know people have fitted AN lines to the console to run a front cooler. I have pics of that setup if it helps. I also have a few spare factory lines and a couple of tanks if it helps. Sorry no body line fittings.

    Thanks i thought that may be the case , I'll fab up another hinge and make some mod's as i go , the oil tank i have is bespoke so it gives me a chance to fit it better to the body. With the oil lines through the body , I'll take the opportunity to update .
    AS this car is going to be a ST rep. i have some licence for change
