1966 Oldsmobile Toronado Headlight Actuators and Contols

I have a 1966 Toronado and can't seem to find these parts anywhere reasonably. I have the headlamps complete, but someone took out both actuators, controls, and vacuum lines. I still have a vacuum tank and I think what would be a switch of some sort that goes on the firewall by a check valve. Not 100% certain. But I do need the actuators, controls, linkage, and vacuum lines. The lines would be nice just to use as a length reference. Both sides are missing, so I would like to get a complete set up.

My zip is 34207, if anyone has these parts (hopefully) please post or email me at htr701@gmail.com.

I've got some core actuators. The springs inside the canisters need replaced. I may have some of the linkage too, but it will be the weekend before I can dig them out. If you don't find the parts from another member before then send me a PM and I'll get some pictures for you. John

I parted a '67 some years ago. I believe that I still have all of the headlight parts. Do you know if it's the same as '66? I'm in south Florida. Thanks, Bob.

I may be going to Bradenton (Desoto Dragway) for the Nostalgia Race in November.

As far as I know its the same set-up. If you have it all let me know how much you want. I don't mind paying for some shipping if you are willing to ship them. Where at are you located; I take trips (sometimes just my father) to Naples and Miami on the weekends, let me know.

And on the core actuators I'll let you know if no other deal works out.

I know the canisters are different but they may interchange, I'm not sure. It might be worth a post on the Toronado forum to see what the Toro gurus think. John

Alright I'll check on interchange.

Can you get pictures of the system you have for sale and a price?
