Title: 1969 Voltage Reg. Mounting.
Post by: 69z28302 on November 13, 2010, 06:05:39 PM: I'm sure this has been covered but I cant find anything on it. I have a 69 02D build date Norwood car . Does it mount with screws or screws and rubber nuts?

Thanks CRG

Mike

Can someone confirm which finish is correct please. :)

67-68s used rubber well-nuts with machine screws to insulate from vibration and used a ground wire to the support.

So typical. Probably the same site that list the correct 67-69 Caution Fan decal.
Never believe a parts catalog.

BTW, what is the finish of the reg screws in the AMK kit?

Post by: Stingr69 on November 14, 2010, 04:03:50 PM: I believe early '69 cars used the rubber well nuts. Later cars used sheet metal screws.

Post by: Steve Shauger on November 14, 2010, 04:28:16 PM: The norwood cars I have inspected from early cars; 9B of 68 to 10A of 69 have used only sheetmetal screws. All examples were survivor cars which have been Vintage Certified.

Post by: Stingr69 on November 14, 2010, 04:32:01 PM: My 10A Norwood car had the holes for rubber well nuts. That might be close to a cut off?

I assume you mean of 10A of 69 just for clarification.

Post by: JohnZ on November 14, 2010, 09:25:32 PM: My unmolested/original 02D '69 has sheet metal screws (no rubber well-nuts), as shown in the Assembly Manual.

Thanks John, what are the finish on them please?

Post by: Boston14 on November 15, 2010, 04:49:15 AM: My 'early' 11D Norwood '69 car has sheet metal screws also. Can't say for sure on the finish, (perhaps zinc) the bolts have seen better days.

They're zinc-plated; phosphated screws weren't used for grounding applications.
