Garage Talk / Re: Anyone go to Carlisle Spring?
« on: April 23, 2024, 11:28:27 PM »
Yeah I went - nadda.
I did see an original stereo with the external unit for $1.2K. Pricey and not worth it.
Only good thing is to get yer repro parts. Save on the shipping. I was scoping a repro bare center console- thought it was CHQ.
OER = No Way.
Saw two V75 Liquid Tire Chain outer cans - nothing else......$900. Another dreamer.
To sum it up - Basically walked 7 miles for nuthin.
Can't wait for Fall Carlisle!!!

Restoration / Re: Source of blue tinted paint on underside of '67 Los Camaro floor
« on: April 14, 2024, 12:10:01 AM »The wheelhouse undercoating was applied after paint at the factory. I see blue but no gold beneath the undercoating.
I think you hit it...................I'm thinking someone pulled a switcheroo on the trim tag sometime in the car's past. I hope I'm wrong.

Originality / Re: 69 RS Z28 Rally Sport emblem question
« on: April 02, 2024, 04:43:56 PM »
My thinking is that this car is a flip, restored by someone / company that simply doesn't know better - AND - made for buyers who don't know any better.
Plus - Its sold.
The person who bought this car won't be too happy if / when they call JMN to certify it.

Maybe look at this before you decide to rebuild it yourself. It can be done - but very carefully. (copy & paste into your browser)

If you have any electro-mechanical skills - you can do it yourself. Just have to be logical about how it came apart and how it goes back together.

I'm sure JMN chimed in on something like that on this forum. He would know, or just follow what the GM manual recommends, except maybe go synthetic.
Not sure how that would work mixing synthetic with residual dino-gear oil.

Not to complicate things, but the Camaro Judging Manual says that the U bolts are black.......maybe a black phosphate? See page 75 where it talks about the rear springs. I looked this up because I almost took mine off to make them grey phosphate.
