Broken axle 69 Camaro
I've got an old ERTL 69 Camaro that my grandson got a hold of and broke off the rear wheel. Anyone have an idea how to get another one from ERTL? All I can find is dealers, I need replacement parts from the manufacturer to put her back in shape. Any help is appreciated.
Exactly what parts? I've got some parts from an Ertl. The car was scrapped due to diecast rot, but the parts I have are in very good condition.
Larry, you will probably never find replacement parts. Your best bet is to buy a "junker"....
.... (the lowest price point you can find) on eBay then make the switch. Once that is done, make your grandson work off the debt. LOL
I can help you out with this one. I have an ERTL '69 Camaro that succumbed to the dreaded "die cast Cancer".
Send me your address and I'll send you out the rear axle assembly.
BOB ... you are the man .... you have a great heart ... My hat off to you sir!
