General Discussion / Quick to Judge Sometimes
« on: September 01, 2011, 01:23:19 AM »
Several months back, I requested some info. on a vin # for a guys car that I learned about. A few weeks ago, I got an ear full (I mean an ear full) from one of his guys closest friend telling me just how much he disliked me for what I had done even though the person that owned car said it was OK to run the Vin# through this site.
First off - I would never intentally trash anyones car, especially on open forum with experts like some of the guys from this site.....How stupid would that be.. I let the guy vent and rant and finally just walked away saying man this sucks..He was not even a part of the original conversation that took place so he jump the gun too..
All the information that I got from this site tells me the car is a real x77 and that the paint code that I listed was incorrect.. I put paint code 52-52 instead of 57-57..As I had stated in my post the lighting was poor when we looked at the cowl tag and that I could have wrote down the wrong numbers...I will never make that mistake again...So, where am I going with this...
I went back and looked at my post and I can see where or when we read something that we jump the gun too quickly and call someeones car a fake, when maybe we really don't know. At this point, I'm not sure is I can undo any wrong doings if any, on my behalf.
Next time, I would only asked that we ask for more details or info before jumping to quickly and calling someones car a fake just incase, it's not.

My car is a 02D build date, which is Feb. fourth week...Did all 1969 production camaro's have a month and week build date (like mine) or did this change sometime during the year. I recall reading on one of the response post that an 06B was not a real number..Can some clear this up for me..

Maintenance / Muffler Removal
« on: June 20, 2011, 01:42:15 AM »
Any advise for removing a stock muffler. The muffler seems to be very tight (I'm sure a little rust is in the mix) and does not want come off, even with a little heat applied...I have sprayed some PB blaster on it to sit over night. I hope this helps...If this does not work, I might be going to the big set of channel-loc pliers. Any advice will be greatly appreciated....
I'm having to replace the muffler due to one of the joint seals now leaking. I removed the tail pipes to replace with some chrome tip pipes that did not fit correctly. I want mention the vendor, but they were so bad I had to send them back..
I found and bought a set of factory replacement Merit chrome pipes but the ends are for 2.250"outlets ..I have 2.000" tail pipes...Since my were like new I decided to send them off to be chromed....
Anyone looking for a set of factory replacement 2.25" outlet chrome tail pipes PM me...The part numbers are Merit 4235 and 4236...

General Discussion / Steering Wheel Shroud
« on: May 27, 2011, 01:54:39 AM »
Man am I ticked off...I just bought and installed a new GM OER steering wheel shroud and the silver trim is coming off..Am I to assume that they came this was from the factory painted silver not coated somehow, or is this just what we are getting these days with OER parts....If I need to paint it what color and type of paint would you recommend for repainting the silver stripping on the shroud....

Decoding/Numbers / Decoding a 02D 1969 Z/28 Transmission P9B18(O)
« on: May 14, 2011, 08:33:46 PM »
I can't make out the last letter on my transmission. I would like other opinions as to if the stamping make this an M20 M21 or M22. The stamp looks like an O instead of and open C...The last letter is up against the radius of the transmission and very hard to see if there is a break in the letter ...It's not clear even when I take a picture of it.. Its surely not and A or B, so I'm assuming it to be an M22...Your thoughts or opinion...

In my quest to locate a motor with pad stamp # V0226DZ a person north of NY sent me this information on a 350 short block with number VO199800, if anyone is looking for this motor. He said it's a std bore four bolt main 350, date coded DEC 1968 which could have be for a camaro.
If interested please let me know and I'll pass along his contact info...He is asking $500.00 OBO...

Originality / Yellow Decal
« on: May 03, 2011, 01:34:07 AM »
As I was thumbing through Rick's Camaro's catalog I came across a part number SBD-69, Steering box oval yellow decal...So here is my question. Where does this go on the steering box ? I can't say that I have ever seen this on a 69 steering box before...Would this be for a standard camaro, SS, RS, or Z28 or all of the before mentioned..
