I guess that's why Instrument Services charge 350.00 to do a sender. Bob's Speedo is 400.00 to 700.00....Joe

I've only used the original GM. They pop up on e-bay from time to time. I collected enough to do both of my cars so I stopped looking for them....Joe

Non style trim cars are body colour. Style trim cars, that are rally green are painted black....Joe

I would say yellow also for the correct day 2 look. I painted mine black...Joe

If you're talking about the ball vents, all 68 Camaros had those. If it was a 67, that would be an A/C car....Joe

I'm not totally understanding your post. What year are you working with & is it LA or Norwood built? What pieces do you need to find?....Joe

If there's no hole in the subframe for the rod, then most likely the car didn't have a spoiler when new or the subframe got changed....Joe

Lots of GM parts were only flash chromed. I could see them doing that...Joe

There is most likely a rubber grommet that the wire runs through that mounts on the fire wall also

There is. It's part of the harness.....Joe

Passenger side of the fuse box, there is a dimple. I believe the hole size is 1/2". Hole was done by Fisher. That's why it's not in the AIMs book...Joe

Originality / Wire information about a power window or power top car

« on: March 14, 2024, 01:15:42 AM »

I have a friend installing power windows in his 69 coupe. There's a wire with a grommet that comes from the inside of the car, through the firewall & goes to the circuit breaker. I went though the AIMs book but couldn't come up with a definitive answer as to where that hole needs to be. Even the chart doesn't show that hole. Power top should have the same hole. It should be 1/2". Can anybody help please & tell me the location of that hole? Thank you, Joe
