Decoding/Numbers / Re: Stamping Opinion

For $101,000 I would want alot of things corrected on that car. Master cyl and booster are after market pieces. Rear springs. If those are wrong what about the rest of the small components that add up like distributor, carb, radiator, generator, starter, water pump, fan, cowl seal is upside down, radiator cap, goofy radio knobs, drilled holes in the dash to permanently mount gauges, etc etc

Not all Camaros got the partial VIN stamped by the blower motor area. My car did not have it. Van Nuys 11B

Paint looks good. I saved my original hoses. I will have to dig them out and see what the striping looks like. I have a VanNuys car 11B.

The 90's repop hoses were not high quality rubber. They would split at every connector. I still have them on my car. Not sure how the new hose kits are

That cowl tag is one of the newer reproduction cowl tags and not original to the car.

I think its azure turquoise as it only came with a black stripe unless you had white vinyl top. (I believe)

For my 69Z ralleys, I bought Krylon 1403 online about a year or so ago and it was hard to find then. I was really happy with the results. One thing I noticed it that the wheel codes around the valve stem were very readable. Most paints go on so thick it hides the codes, but not this paint.

I would definitely use it again and wait for it if I had to.

Chinese Repop Brake Booster!
Love the saggy material on the headrests. Seats are totally messed up with wrong covers on them.

So much wrong here

I beleive that tag has been off the car and is one of the newer repop tags.

Would love to see the drive train stampings on this one.

Goathill no longer has the parts to rebuild them & at last conversation he doesn't know where, when or if he will have the parts. I orders a 40524 pump from him in Feb 2021. Still don't have it. He did cash my check in March of 2021
Fred is a little back logged also as he is taking care of family which always comes 1st. Fred has 2 of my 40524s...Joe

GoatHill is a real LOSER. He took me and many others. He only takes checks and cashes them and doesnt send you anything because he doesnt have it!! Then gives you a run around and some BS excuses. Dont deal with this guy! BAD NEWS!!
