Looking for a 4 core radiator top plate and the rear braces that would have came with an A body with a 455. Car is a 72 A body.

Posi rear needed if close to Seattle.... 10 bolt would be ok

Also collecting parts and leads for a 4speed swap and need everything....

Thanks,
John

I have the top plate,the rear frame braces,and I can build any rear that you want.
The top plate and frame braces were just powder-coated satin black 2 weeks ago.
The top plate has one small nick/ding,the size of a fingernail clipping,in the center,where the service sticker is placed,and will be hidden once the sticker is placed on there.
The frame braces are from a Florida car,and are near perfect,but do have some light pitting a few areas.
$275.00 for the top plate and frame braces,with shipping included to Seattle.
As for the rearend,I would build another 8.5" 10-bolt,like the original one for your car.I can build it with any ratio,new gears,posi,bearings,etc.It gets hot-tanked,blasted,primed,painted.It comes fully assembled,ready to run.The backing plates are included,but no brake hardware.Price would be $1450.00,with shipping to the ABF dock located in Kent,WA.No disappointments.
