These are parts that were in a box that came with my 76 tin top. I assume they are Bus parts, but not sure. Thanks for the assist.

Wow, that was fast. #2 is a Zirc fitting with a "syringe" on the inside. Not sure what that would be used for.

For shoving grease into fittings with rubber cover- like ball joints.

It could be that but the photo is poor. Also looks a bit like the end of an adjustable throttle linkage.
The rubber thing looks like some kind of a trans buffer screwed onto some miscellaneous parts. |

Or CV joints as well (boot on installed).

Difficult to say without anything for scale in the pic but the springs look a little like the ones at the forward end of the parking brake handle.

| Only the two large "shuttlecock" shift bushings will work on your bus. The smallest bushing (i call it a "top hat" bushing.) fits early baywindow models. '68 up to I think '73. (feel free to correct me on the '73 if need be.) the midsize split bushing fits all bugs as well as buses 1967 and older. except for the very old old buses that required no front bushing at all. |
