Here are the DS marks from a 04C 69 Camaro COPO. From L to R they are "Purple/Brown/Orange", and about 17" aft of the front U jount centerline.Would you know what is the casting number on the end?
Have fun with the car.

I wanted to post pictures of the stripes on my driveshaft that is out of an early 1969 z28 (october 1968 build).Does anybody know if the big block shaft for M20 has a different casting number?
Muncie close ratio transmission. The shaft is offset, it is 50 7/8 in length (from end to end). It is 46 7/8 from
tube end to tube end. The numbers on one end of the tube are 3790024 and their is the chevrolet symbol
cast into one end with the numbers 404-1 next to it. The stripe is yellow and I cannot see any other stripes
towards either ends, but I will look again.
If anyone can decode those numbers please let me know.

What are the differences between imported vs. domestic sheetmetal panels?Original patch panels are best because I bought a repro trunk pan to repair the original pan and the depressions do not line up. Poor stamping quality.
For judging would it be better to repair damaged original sheetmetal or replace it?

heat up the manifold with a torch, not the nut, melt wax into threads alow to cool and should come right out.works when manifold is heated to cherry red.
