U35 floor mount clock pod and bracket
« on: February 03, 2010, 03:07:47 AM »
Hello all,

First time post, long time reader. I am wondering if anyone here knows a source for parts for the U35 floor mount clock for 67. I have a deluxe bench seat car with no console, but was ordered with the floor mount clock. I can't seem to dig up anything anywhere on this as far as parts sources go and wondered if anyone here has any information. My harness is there and good and the mount holes are in the transmission tunnel, just no bracket or pod. I would greatly appreciate any help, and thank you all for the very informative posts I've been reading all along.

Thanks,
-Adam

I guess the obvious reply is to look on ebay.
That is quite a hard call to find original parts like that. Do an ebay search and see what you can come up with, good luck!  ;)

Yep, so far ebay has been the only place I turned one up. Wondering if I should head to the Pomona swap meet next month and see if one turns up there. Crazy fun finding this sucker :-)

The major swaps are always great places to find those elusive parts, but if you can buy one on ebay that could save you some leg work. Depends how much of a challenge you wish to make it.  8)

Yes those are the ones I am watching now! Wish me luck! Funny that before I realized I needed this I had no care about clocks at all now it consumes my thoughts as soon as I find out I was supposed to have it :-)

Here's a third one, if the other two don't work out...

Were these installed at the factory or dealer? Also, are they all the same from year to year?
My 68 SS had no console or gauges, but there was a small round hole in the carpet someone covered from underneath, and when I recently disassembled the car, I found what appears to be the same bracket shown in these kits. Thanks, John.

Those were a factory options, though a dealer could install one.
