Looks to me like the clip attached to the wiring harness.  AIM drawing says part of 2, 2 is the wiring harness.  Most all wiring harness' have the clip attached.

I'm not referring to the clip attached to the harness. I'm referring to the "receptical" that's part of the 69 mounting "bracket assy" (See sheet 6, View A).

No problem Darrell, but good luck finding the 69 console bracket (number 3 in the above drawing from sheet A2 - P/N 3949617). As far as I know, the only one available in reproduction is the 68 and it doesn't have the wiring harness receptical on it. However, it appears HEARTBEAT CITY has it "used", but it's not cheap! And it's even more expensive in his EBAY AUCTION!

Darrell, most people aren't aware of this (including the repop houses), but the 68 console is different than the 69. The 68 has a small cutout on the front for the wire harness to pass through (see the upper picture below), while the 69 has the larger cutout where the mounting bracket with the wiring harness clip passes through. I don't have a picture of the 69 console, but you can see what I mean by the composit I made of the 69 AIM, UPC D55 sheet A2 and sheet A6 (specifially view A) in the lower picture below.

Got it Mike. Yep. It's a 1992 DCA mirror, way too late for your car.

Haven't seen a DCS, but it's a later issue Donnelly mirror. Donnelly changed their names a few times over the years and we know "DMI" is Donnelly Mirror Incorporated, "DCA" is Donnelly Corporation of America, but no info on "DCS". I would imagine Donnelly Corporation S______.

Donnelly Mirror was acquired by MAGNA in 2002, but they still make automobile mirrors.

By the way, the R in the circle is for "registered".

Can you post a picture?

Good for you. It's refreshing to see someone sell a car based on emotion instead of $$$!

I'm sure he was thrilled to get it back too!

Well, the news isn't good guys.

I just spoke to Jeff and he does have several sets of seats, but most of the cables are broken, missing, cracked, etc... The two that he found that were still in good shape are attached to seats that are also in good shape, so he doesn't want to pull the cables off and sell them separately.

Looks like we're back to the drawing board on this one.

Check with the 409 guys. That same pulley was used on the 63-65 high performance 409. Also check with the Corvette guys. It was also used on the 69-79 Corvette big blocks and small blocks in various configurations. Then there's the 65-67 Chevelle 396. That also came with that pulley (with AC and 62 amp alternator). Not to mention the police cars from the early 70's. Heck, it was even used on the 74/75 Vega!

But to answer your question, it's still available from GM. Go to GMPARTSDIRECT.COM and put in 3844100. $20.39 plus shipping!

Maintenance / Re: 1967 350 Oil Filter: Canister vs. Spin-On
« on: January 17, 2012, 02:49:09 PM »
Advantages of the canister filter is that they're (usually) cheaper and they hold 1 quart of oil. The disadvantage is that they're starting to get harder to find.

The advantages of the spin on is that they're (sometimes) just as cheap as the canister filter, easy to find, and if you get a Fram PH373* or equivilant, they hold approx 1.5 quarts. The disadvantages of the spin on is more junk in the landfill.

You're looking at the "assembly" part numbers (916963 & 4) -vs- the "casting number" of the housing (5961556). The assembly consisted of the housing, lens, gasket, etc...
