Them center caps would be appropriate for 142gt, '71 142e, or 1800e/es. I think they will only work with the square hole wheels... They do look cool, and they ain't common... shoulda kep 'em around. But they do show up on ebay frequently for $10/set range. ebay is definitely the place to sell unusual mystery parts. Sometimes you get lucky. One of my very first ebay sale was a set of Shelby/Mustang GT350 hubcaps that I got at a garbage sale for $20. Sold 'em for more than $300...

As for that idler arm... Geez... I'd just be looking in junkyards for a complete one that's tight if you can find one. Sounds like yours might have been so bad at one point that it reamed out the hole that the bushing goes into, hence, no press fit. Hence, shot. I *might* even have one around. Probably do actually, it would be away from my house and take a while for me to find it. I'll look for you though next time I'm out thattaway.
