General Discussion / Re: 1967 seat belt clips

« on: April 18, 2024, 04:08:43 PM »

I would suspect some cars had them added over the years, since the vendors do not indicate they were a late year option, and some probably just liked the idea of having the clips.

I believe it was discussed here in the past but I did not find any old threads.  As I recall, it was estimated they first showed up in late April or May, and sporadically.

Yes, if you look at the backside of the old paint chip code sheets, they would list the flat versus semi gloss codes for each color.  The flat versions were almost always darker as well.

Are we even certain that's factory sound deadener/undercoating on top of the blue paint?  As stated earlier, a lot can happen over the years.

J 4 8 ..... I believe that's November 4th, 1968. If not accurate, someone will correct me.

For cast date codes, "I" was used for September, so his "J" would be October:

You can occasionally find NOS on eBay, for about the price of what they want to rebuild, or sometimes even less.  I believe the part numbers were superseded many times over the years. The later motors and I think repops had a different connector, and require a short adapter harness.

Looks like Carolina Blue was a 69 Chevelle color:

Colorado Blue was shown as a 1930 Pontiac then 1985 Mazda color

Originality / Re: Jay Chevrolet Haddonfield NJ emblems

« on: February 01, 2024, 08:26:32 PM »

Old license plate frames occasionally show up on eBay, of varying condition and some have crazy prices.  Whenever I'm on the site, I search for my car's dealership in Sacramento.

No idea if it's the same dealership chain, but there's a Jay Chevrolet Oldsmobile Boonville NY currently listed.  The style looks like it would from the 1960s, and might give an idea of what you'd be looking for. NFI.

Not the 3903402 light assembly listed in the 67 AIM, but this is the 987028 shown in the late 1966 P&A for all Chevrolet models, and possibly exclusive for that year.

So it appears the 67 AIM illustration for cars with hood insulation - Sheet A2 - with the wiring shown on top of the insulation and using two of the insulation plastic clips to hold the excess wiring, was not followed. Also the metal wiring clip at the light is in a different location - bracket versus the bulb shield. It will be interesting to see if there was any difference between NOR and LOS cars.

If you want them, I can post up a couple good photos from an old eBay auction, of a NOS over the counter 987028, which is listed in the August 1966 P&A Catalog for Camaro, and all other Chevrolet models.  It has the single mounting hole, stepped bracket, and long wiring.  I've no idea what the difference is, if any, between it and the 3903402 "Lamp Assembly" listed in the AIM.
