[74sundance]

Hey guy's I'm looking for a oil dipstick tube for a 1968 440 that I put into my 1974 Satellite.I don't care if it's in need of clean up and paint or if it's ready to go.Let me know what you have...Ontario,Canada

I'll check tomorrow but I should have one around here somewhere, you need just the tube? or tube and stick?

Just the tube would be perfect.I have the one pictured above but it's cheep Chinese metal and snapped when I tried to bend it to line up the mounting hole.I'd like to reuse the billet dipstick.

I did the same thing.

it's funny,the one part on an engine where you think you can save a few bucks,,,and snap your paying double (Pun intended) ;)

Any luck finding a tube?

Still looking for a tube....Most places $11.00 for a new dipstick set,$34.00 to ship to Canada what a joke!

Hey 74 Sundance, where in Ontario are you? If at all possible have your stuff shipped to CBI in Niagara Falls NY and drive over to pick it up. Then you just pay regular import duty which is significantly less than the shipping company rip off. Another option if you live a bit away is to have several items shipped and then do one big trip. Still well worth it for most people.

Yes if you are that close then definitely a good option for you. The folks at CBI run a great business and they are extremely helpful,etc. Like I said, if you are going to be buying quite a few things an annual membership might be in order as it will save you money. All of the options/details are well explained on their site. If not I believe it's $5.99/ parcel. And no storage fee so really a good deal and certainly a cost savings over brokerage fees. It's 45 mins drive from my house so a great option for me. I have several friends who use their services as well and all are very happy. Good luck with your adventures. Don't forget to wave on your way by to the border:hello2:

As a dumb Americam...do they check your trunk when going both ways? couldn't you just have it in your car when driving back? How do they know you bought it in the states. But officer I carry parts in my car all the time. I don't want to pay no duty..sir.

 

[74sundance]

lol,,,, When I bought my 74 Satellite Sundance they didn't care to check the car out at all but they did check my truck and were nice enough to rip off $300.00 I had in an envelope sitting on my seat.I didn't bother reporting it because I figured I'd have a hard time going back and forth after that.
