Originality / 68 BB fan shroud

Did the fan shroud on 1968 L35 cars have a warning decal eg; Caution Fan....etc.?

Thanks for the great input, I never remembered seeing it on the car either and this is what prompted the question to the forum. I thought the rad support would seem cluttered and that's not what I saw in 1970.....but then again there is lots I don't remember about the car back then. Funny how the decals didn't mean much then, they were a sort of oddity.

I see the tune up sticker and the "Canada only" fenderwell referenced in the ASM. The sticker I have is the one indicating Thermostat 180#....etc. Where did this go? It is not the dealer antifreeze decal.

1968 Factory spoilers and dealer installed kits had acorn nuts at the rear edge, these were deeper than normal hardware store stuff. The front edge used large flange nuts. Both egdes used self sealing nitrile rubber distance washers on the top where the spoiler meets the decklid.

Did 1968 BB cars get a cooling decal and if so, where was it mounted? I don't see any reference to this decal in the ASM.

Thanks

That makes sense. Is there only one (LHS only)?

Time to take off the header moulding anyway to have a look before the winnshield goes in.

This is soft rubber not hard plastic so i don't think its a rub strip. 1st gen Camaro rags have 3 rub strips on the hearder bow and this isn't one of them.

I'll have a look in the AIM. There is a supplimentary wiring harness that exits at the firewall and enters the front of the console. Since it is hidden under the console I assume it can come up anywhere near the firewall end of the carpet.

Does anyone have a clue on what this part is and where it goes? I found it in my wndhield moulding box with a note i wrote saying it belongs on the windhield frame 2 3/4" off center on the drivers side. I cannot figure out where it goes.

Restoration / 68 convertible windshield frame
« on: April 27, 2007, 11:36:12 PM »
Can anyone provide me details or even a picture of what is on the windshield frame at the inside of a ragtop? I've installed the brushed chrome wrap around header moulding on the top of the windshield frame and the windshield pillar vinyl covered mouldings. Does something else cover the exposed painted area visible under the sunvisor between the sunvisor bracket and the rearview mirror?
I forgot to take pictures of this in 1983 when I took it apart.....go figure.

Thanks

You are correct as usual. FYI you need to provide power and ground to the PBC for the tach to work. I forgot that.
