Default Attention 1970 nova owners

I have the opportunity to manufacture the turbo 400 trans kickdown switch bracket. This bracket bolts to the firewall. This is a one year only part for nova's with the turbo 400 trans. The bracket will be an exact match, except it will come in bare steel instead of grey phosphate plating. Right now i am just trying to see if there is enough interest to put this part into production. There is expensive tooling that would have to be done to duplicate this bracket. I need to have a minimum order of 20 pcs. or more to make this feasible. This would be a pre-sale/ made to order. The price would be $99 each. So right now i just need feedback from people who would actually purchase this bracket. Thanks,Roger

Roger, Your work is perfect, in every way. Congrats, hope you clean house. If only other manufactures, would DO the same thing. BBBenny [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

In the last image -- is the switch mounted on the correct side of the bracket?

Switch should be mounted on the other side of the bracket.
