My Z has the original springs  which are beginning to sag just a bit on the rear drivers side.  Can someone recommend a vendor where I can get the  front coil and rear leaf springs  that will produce the proper ride height. Thanks

Where is this hood code located?
Does the CRG database have any production numbers of 69 Z's with factory ZL2 hoods?

Decoding/Numbers / Re: 69 Windshield decoding

My data looks like this below, so I'll assume it's a replacement. Having troubled deciphering the manufacturing date 1-49 code based on the examples from Mark's link. Could it be an April 69 date?
(Car build date 05A)

                                 SHADED
                           SOFT- PPG -RAY
                              LAMINATED
                           SAFETY PLATE
                          AS-1             1-49
                            DOT 18  - M 23

Thanks for all your input!

Decoding/Numbers / 69 Windshield decoding

I noticed all glass on my 69 Camaro has the Soft Ray LOE markings except for the windshield which has the following:

Soft Ray PPG marking (in place of the LOE) with A-S1, 1-69 DOT 18 M23. Would this possibly be a date correct replacment?

Thanks

Originality / 69 Z Alternator

« on: June 28, 2012, 10:15:07 PM »

Were alternators with the number 1100834 used on 69 Z-28 Camaros? I'm not seeing that number in Jerry's book.

Maintenance / Battery Drain Problem

« on: June 22, 2012, 01:34:12 AM »

I'm having a battery drain issue and was wondering if there were any older strings on troubleshooting this particular problem?

Situation:
The the battery runs down after a two day sit. The alternator seems to charge after the initial jump indicating 14.7 volts across the battery terminals and then levels off at 12.7 volts. With the engine off - If I leave the battery (+) cable disconnected the charge stays or if I disconnect the Voltage regulator the charge also remains but if I reconnect them I lose the charge. I also noticed when I connect the (+) terminal in the dark there is a slight spark which may be the drain....or is that normal???

I've even tried disconnecting the fuse circuits one at a time to try to isolate the problem but no success.

Any suggestions would much appreciated! (The car is a 69 Z with a stock ignition system and orignal wiring that seems to be visually in VG condition)

Thanks!

Simple Green with a scrubby also works.... and it's safe on your tires and wheels.
