Thanks for the reply

Did you need any pics for your conversion.  I did the same and love the seat.  I use the crap out of that seat for groceries and car show chairs and cooler storage.

I could use some pictures of the latch and covers !

Jerry,
Is the trunk latch hardware for the 67 also not painted?

John, thanks for the reply.
Looking at the 67 A.M. page 374 the caption [ HYDRAULIC STEERING 396 ENG EXCEPTIONS ( RPO L35- L78 ) ], I take the word Exceptions to mean that  sheet is to be used for the assembly of L35 and L78. Am I interpreting this correctly ?
Will be at Camaro Nats. in a couple of weeks and hope to meet you and Jerry.
Again thanks for your help.

Joe , thanks for the reply .

I am in the process of building a 67 w/BB and thought I new the correct components for the power steering system .
The 67 assembly manual shows on page 374 ,2 sleeves, 1 clamp and a clip ( part of steering gear ) and on page 370 it only shows the sleeves and the clamp ( no clip ).
The 68 A.M. shows on page 375 the same as 67 A.M. page 374.
The 69 A.M. shows on page 405 2 sleeves, 1 clip, 1 clamp and a clip ( part of steering gear ) .
I bought a very late 68 ss/rs/396 ( in 69 - July or Aug. delivery ) and it had the 69 set up. I am not sure if it had 1 or 2 sleeves.
Also need to know if the return line hose uses screw or pinch type clamps an optional clamp ( 9424894 ) is shown ?
John Z or Jerry do you have any thoughts on this topic ?

Up-date
Does anyone have any measurements such as length , I.D. , O.D, thickness of the sleeve, so that I can make some sleeves ?

Claus,
I will try to help you with your problem but first we will have to narrow it down a bit. With the key and lights on, open the right door by hand. Now turn off the lights. Did the right door close. If it did then the motor is OK and your problem is in the headlamp limit switch (no ground). If it did not close the motor is defective. I do not believe that both limit switches could be bad but I guess it possible.
Hope this helps!
Bob

Are you going to use your stock fan and clutch or an after market ? If you use the stock setup with the long water pump the fan maybe not be in proper position in the fan shroud, this could cause heating problems.
