General Discussion / Re: 1969 Starter Motor Numbers

Dave,
That is one I expected.   What's the date on the starter?

Rich,
I'd like to note Casey's starter in the db. Do I have data on that car?

Thanks guys!

L48 TH350 - 1108420 is one that I've confirmed and is a little surprising in light of the TSB (posted above). The earliest car I have data on is a 12A, so maybe the earlier cars got the 1108361 and they changed to the 1108420 (though the TSB never states they made a production usage change).

I usually pass everything on to you guys, so I think so, but to be thorough I'll look his info up and resend, it was/is a white (originally frost green) RS TH350 LM1 car. He had it for sale about a year ago. He had to listed on camaros.net.

I just had him over to the house and we pulled the front cap off so he can start the resto on the subframe. Most everything was/is original. Any other numbers that you want while I am over there?

Hi Jerry,

Here is some of the first info that I have gathered.

LM1's

1. Original Starter -Casey's car, the LM1 you certified here, TH350 car, Date 8L1, 1108361

2. N541594 Non Original Starter, flywheel has 168 teeth, TH350

3. N505852 Non Original Starter, flywheel has 168 teeth, TH350

4. N549197 MC1, looking for starter, not at John's so it must be here. Will look after I get back from the show.

Beware, there is a known scammer on fake stamped 69 Convert L78's in the Tennesee area. I was lucky to get my moneyback. Search for Jaminnow and Ringblow on this site and camaros.net for details. Not saying this is the guy, but just to make sure that you get an EXPERT to review those stamps before you buy.

1969 - Orphans / Re: 9N5097xx - L78 engine block

« on: June 17, 2007, 11:56:38 PM »

Hi Guys,
I was the member who bought this block originally. Sorry so long in answering, I was on vacatiion and just got back.
This guy is a TOTAL scammer, he has over 10 ebay names, and restamps blocks, VIN tags, and Trim Tags. The trim tag was so good that many thought it was real. Caused quite a stir a while back.

Seller claimed that the block and a wrecked part of a convert were a 69 L78 Convert. After paying, I got the restamped tags, the restamped block and instead of a firewall/body, I was sent some restamped convin metal parts.

It took several months and some contacts with the FBI / his states consumer affairs to make this jerk refund my money. He is in Tennesee, even though some of his ID's show miss and ark.

His mistake with me was to have shipped the items as his auto business, "Fat Alberts" which is how I got consumer affairs involved. After me, he said he is only going to ship personal. In one month, I tracked him on over 20k in sales on "rare" restamps on ebay. After some initial interest at the FBI, my contact was told to drop it as the value was not enough to justify the investiagtion.

Guess I didn't specify the year. Mine is a 69.

I have a 69 LM1 with the three speed muncie under a frame on resto right now. My first car was a 69 Camaro, 307/3 speed console car. Man that three speed was fun! I am with the other guys, leave the three speed in!
