Redoing my engine compartment wiring harness, and want to replace parts, but can't find in catalogs.
Two marked in photo with arrows.
Thanks

Excellent
The upper part in the photo is the Overdrive Relay (Part # 7A651). Concours Parts has it for $295.00 (their part # 6915-6V). The lower part is the Overdrive Kickdown Switch (Part # 7A652). National Parts Depot has it for$25.70 (their part # T-7A652-1). Hope this helps, Hilde.
Excellent thanks, I thought it was for overdrive because where the wires length and where I placed it but nothing showed in catalog / drawing. Perfect answer

They're not cheap. I would check to see if their still operational. The ones on my '55 are original and they still work. Good luck, Hilde.
