Brake hoses and brakes on a 1965 GS

[65gs76limited]

Al,The POR15 was just a little to glossy for my liking so i used Professional Rust-Oleum with a good NAPA primer and I'm very happy with the results. The Professional line is nothing like the regular watered down crap.   Tom    P.S. This is semi gloss.

   If you look at a set of upper control arms from a '64-'67 Skylark, you will notice they have "Pont" stamped in the top of them. 

I saw a pair of those with the 'PONT' stamping at a swap meet....they were next to a pair that did NOT have the stamping. My (late) 65 GS and 66's do not have the 'PONT' stamping... maybe it was a 64-early 65 thing?

Walt,I have three sets of these laying around.I'm going to check them and I'll get back to you with what what I find on mine. Interesting,very interesting.    Tom

The '65 GS supposedly had "harder" rubber bushings in the suspension, so maybe the upper control arms came from a different location for the GS because of the bushings in them.  All of the regular 64-66 Skylarks I have taken apart had Pont on them.  Thinking back, I can't remember if the ones in my GS did or not.

Thanks for posting this!  Is there any special deal with the Master Cylinder?   Can you share the part # for the master cyl?
Thanks,
