Mild Modifications / Re: Is there a passenger side mirror that matches 69 Camaro square mirror?

Terry. It was never an option for a RH mirror. You could buy it as an accessory from the parts department but not from the factory...Joe

After working for NAPA & cutting open oil filters, the only filter I would use is Wix & maybe Baldwin. Engines are way too expensive.....Joe

I use the first line Wix on everything, but not the racing filter...Joe

Welcome aboard.

That trunk area is perfect & I wouldn't touch it. That area wasn't painted....Joe

Water pumps are installed during engine assembly and generally dated close to that. Probably no more than a month prior, but could be within a day or two. 

Thanks. Distributor, too?

Yes....Joe

Here's a few pictures. I might need to take it off as the camera flash makes it too much. Thank you, Joe

My original master cylinder got lost some years back. About 12 years back I purchased one on e-bay. It's the disc brake "US" type. Anything I can look at to determine if it's an original of a reproduction? Thank you, Joe
