Hello Everyone I am posting this for a friend/RROC member. "drosenberg" RROC Cloud I Steering/Parts Car Needed Hi all: I will need to be replacing the complete steering system in a 1957 Cloud I (LSED 387), from the steering tube through to the steering box. 1. Besides looking for another 1957 LHD Cloud, is there a failsafe way to know from another car's chassis number if the steering will be a direct replacement for mine? 2. Does anyone know of such a parts car? The quotes I have been getting for just the steering stuff is amazing, so maybe I would do better to try and find a whole (parts) car. Thanks. Don Any response will be passed on promptly. whunter RROC, Lake Michigan, Motor and Ohio region.

Bill or William? Haven't figured out what the "W" stands for. Just assume it is for the best male name out there. Sorry I can not be of more help. However, there was a "gentleman" better said junk dealer just outside of Naples, Florida (between Naples and Fort Myers) that had a whole back yard of SC "parts cars". Three years ago he thought they had value. As I assume none of them did or could move, maybe he has reduced his expectations. If I can find what I did with his, email, phone number or address I will send it on to you. In the mean time might be worth an Internet search in that area of Florida on old RR/B. Regards, Bill | ||

Hello Everyone Don has sold the car to a club member who owns a shop and he almost broke even with repairs + purchase = sale price. He was not happy to part with the Cloud, but admits it was the best thing he could do with the situation. Thank you all. whunter RROC, Lake Michigan, Motor and Ohio region.
