Originality / 1969 Single Exhaust Hanger Bracket, inboard of LH frame rail
« on: July 26, 2022, 01:07:20 PM »
I may have a variation on the hanger used on single exhaust on 1969? My December car has a single attaching point, while my March car has 2 attaching points (front and rear). Anyone care to share or pinpoint a change in design, possibly?

Garage Talk / MCACN & Kurt
« on: November 22, 2021, 10:17:48 PM »
You ever have a person you look so forward to seeing? They don’t have to do any one thing for you. They don’t give you money, lavish you with praise. Nor are they a celebrity type or a “kiss my ring” type. You just like them. You like them for their unique, great qualities. Well, that is Kurt Sonen. I was so glad to see Kurt at MCACN. We spent time sharing the Camaro gospel and he even showed me how to spot a fake… something( I’m sworn to secrecy), lol! I’m privileged to call him friend and look so forward to another event where we can catch up. Was that barn find Yenko nuts are what? Loved it!!

Originality / 1969 Manual transmission Big Block with AC Radiator
« on: August 13, 2021, 02:33:17 AM »
Explaining to several buddies about what 69s came with a curved neck radiator. I told them that I know of no 396 ac with manual trans. Are there any known examples in the database or that anyone has seen and verified? Just curious? I know it could be ordered, but have never seen one.

General Discussion / Manual Trans Shifter Report
« on: February 28, 2021, 10:44:19 AM »
IIR, Bryon worked on the shifter report on main page. I reference this a lot. Thankful for the good and helpful info. Hats off to all who made this a concise informative report with many pictures.
However, there is a picture not in this report that I would greatly appreciate added. That would be a picture of the 1969 Hurst Shift Levers. I want to have a reference for the Muncie & Saginaw 4 speeds. And 3 speed Saginaw if different.
As an aside, I read somewhere that 3 speed floor shift 69s do not use the Hurst handle? If I am misinformed, I apologize. I’d like more info on the 3 speed floor shifter. I acquired a 3 speed shifter that the body has a single 3/8-16 bolt that holds it together. It had a bayonet exactly like the 4 speed Hurst which I robbed to repair my factory Hurst. Would like to know what that shifters application was for?

Garage Talk / Statistically Speaking-Attrition rate of 1st Gens
« on: February 07, 2021, 01:24:18 AM »
Is there any data that would suggest how many, by year or otherwise, 1st Gens are left on the planet? Maybe in just the US? Out of the 250k (roughly) in each model year, how many are left? If someone wants to take this further and take a model and try and give a statistic, like how many 69 Zs are left? ( I know, 40k, lol). Or, 396 cars?

Restoration / Seat bun (foam) recommendation
« on: November 12, 2020, 01:43:04 PM »
As replacement parts quality improves, I thought it would be good to revisit this topic and see what guys recommend?
I need to have my seats recovered and the bun is deteriorated. Standard interior, but also will be doing a deluxe at some point. What is the best quality brand for an OE look? I notice some have wire impregnated. I assume this is recommended? Saw all kinds of prices that made me wonder what I should be looking for in brand and quality?

Restoration / 1969 AMD quarter panel
« on: October 26, 2020, 04:21:53 PM »
Somewhere I read that after market 1/4s lacked the correct detail where 1/4 meets tail panel. That was described as not having a slight recess looking straight on from the rear next to where tail light would be. The panel kinda dimples in there on originals. Can someone tell me if the AMD 1/4 has the correct shape? Or, any other Differences a AMD 1/4 deviates from factory steel in appearance? Thanks CRG.
