    Need new, general category under "General Restoration Discussions"

    I want to ask for help in finding sources for hard to find rubber pieces, but I cannot fit my inquiry into the categories in this part of the forum. I suggest that a "General" category be added as a catchall for inquiries like mine.

      The hardest thing to find is a rectangular plug with rounded corners that goes on the left side casting of my 1966 Honda 150 Touring Benly (aka "150 Dream"). The plug I have now works fine, but I shudder to think of where I might even find another.

        Contact a company called Steele Rubber Products. They have every extrusion, plug, angle, etc. etc. etc. ever made. I've never struck out with them. They supply hot rods, antique vehicles, motorcycles. I think they buy up all the old patterns and just keep 'squishing the stuff out.' Great company, great people.

        Cheers and hope this helps,
