Originality / Factory Correct Vacuum Advance - 1968 Camaro
« Last post by gwp4 on Today at 04:16:30 AM »Hi Camaro Experts -
I have a 1968 standard base model cpe Camaro 327/210 HP SB manual 3 spd with no a/c. I'm being judged in the Legends class and need the factory correct vacuum advance. The original distributor on the car has the number 1111440 with a date code of 8D8 (April 8, 1968). The car was manufactured on May 14, 1968 so it's correct. The Legends judging manual for 1967-1968 Camaros does not have the 1111440 distributor number listed. I believe the vacuum advance should be MS 201 15 but I'm not sure. Many thanks in advance for the assistance. gwp4

Rustynut is your car a convertible? Your profile says an SS 350 but makes no mention of a convertible. Unless the retainer you seek is not for your car? Just curious. Anyhow the “manual” is the AIM ( Assembly Instruction Manual) that Kurt S has made available to all.

Originality / Re: Wiper motor stamping
« Last post by CantRepeat on May 06, 2024, 11:14:46 PM »I've order a stamp made with the Introit font and will post the results once I get it.
The rest of the restoration turned out ok. I think the screws holding the pump nozzles came out too shiny for the zinc but I was able to find the correct color nozzles. Most of the repops are bright white and don't match.

I have the hook, and wingnut, I just need a solid source for the retainer. Any help or explanation would be great!!!
