I would think the AiM could clarify the answer. It does for 1969.

You did it again! Another outstanding car. Congrats! Most would be fortunate to land one survivor in a lifetime. You have had several.

« on: September 16, 2021, 10:29:42 AM »You have that power. Just put the VIN in your post and it will show up in search results.
Probably 124379N649333 or 124379N649338
Thanks, KS. Will do

I was looking at this on eBay and was seeing if it was in this section? I’m convinced the last digit is an 8 and not a 3. If there is a consensus, moderator may have the ability to alter the post to reflect number? Thanks.

Restoration / Re: Looking for clutch adjustment problem help
« on: September 15, 2021, 08:29:42 PM »
My experience is that the clutch fork pivot ball and or throw out bearing are the culprits. The stock height ball worked great on my diaphragm press. plates. When I switched to a 3 finger Borg Beck style, the alignment and adjustment problems began. I ended up getting a longer fork pivot ball that gave more distance and , therefore, adjustability to pedal. There are different heights of throw out bearings as well

« on: August 14, 2021, 02:00:52 PM »A/C was optional with L34 and L35 396 engines; seen a number of them over the years.If anyone was going to give a definitive answer, I thought at least one would be from you, Bill. Thanks. Several? Hmmm, would have thought that rare to have both. Thanks, again.

Originality / Re: L78 Survivor Mystery Hole
« on: August 14, 2021, 12:52:58 PM »
I had a SS350 that had hole(s) in the same areas for a Sears, add on ac. Had a York compressor. The unit mounted under dash and was thin and followed the contour of dash indicating it was specially made for that 69 F body/ Nova application. At 18, it was the 1st thing a ripped out of the car.

Originality / 1969 Manual transmission Big Block with AC Radiator
« on: August 13, 2021, 02:33:17 AM »
Explaining to several buddies about what 69s came with a curved neck radiator. I told them that I know of no 396 ac with manual trans. Are there any known examples in the database or that anyone has seen and verified? Just curious? I know it could be ordered, but have never seen one.

Decoding/Numbers / Re: VN built 69 Camaro with a Firebird VIN on the transmission?
« on: August 13, 2021, 02:24:35 AM »Yeah, it's pretty goofy.“Born With Drive train” that term trumps all others as to describing a legitimate number matching car and that is how it should be referred. Anyone that knows these cars will understand what that means.
So how do you describe a car like this? I suppose technically it's not "numbers matching", or at least not "VIN matching". I guess you would describe it as "documented original drivetrain"? Just curious in case I decide to list it somewhere. Seems like you get a lot of grey area on this and some shady wording by some, although I think this car is about as honest as they come.

You can take some activated Charcoal powder and knead it into the caulk to make it black.
