General Discussion / 68 grille color
« on: May 30, 2017, 05:22:19 PM »
Hi all,
I have read through many different strings on grille color, and I interpret that mine should be black. But can someone tell me what type of black?
I am installing a new grille on my 68 camaro, it will be badged as an SS. So the grille color should be black according to what I've read here. My car has a build date of 07A. I am going to attempt to paint myself, I can find flat black and ultra flat black on HBC. But not sure what flat black. Can someone assist with what color black it should be? Thanks.

General Discussion / Re: Seat frames
« on: February 21, 2017, 10:14:10 PM »
So, I'd have to have the seats shipped to me and he's not able to get to them to look just yet. But here's a pic of one seat split at the seam of the upper portion back rest. Looks like cotton to me. Thoughts? Could these be the older style then that I could recover with 68 seat covers? Thanks.

I haven't seen your post, I'll go and check it out. I'll have to look a little closer at the seats and see what type they are. Thanks. Any other input would be greatly appreciated.

General Discussion / Seat frames
« on: February 17, 2017, 10:11:54 PM »
Just trying to decipher all the different posts about seats, looking at restoring my interior in my 68 Camaro. Are 68 and 69 front bucket seat frames the same? I have a friend who has 69 bucket seat frames with hear rests, and wants to get rid of them. They need recovered, and I'd buy them and recover them with 68 deluxe seat covers and new foam. But not sure if the seat frames for the 69 bucket seats could be recovered with 68 deluxe seat covers and foam. Thanks for any input.

General Discussion / Re: 68 rear speaker package tray cutout?
« on: February 15, 2017, 04:56:27 PM »
Or does anyone know of a good source to show the cutout and installation guide for rear speakers. I want to install in my car as well and make it look original. The AIM illustrations I have seen so far weren't very detailed for the rear speaker set up. My car is a couple.

General Discussion / Grab Bar
« on: February 13, 2017, 09:35:30 PM »
Newbie here, still learning. I've gone through some of the search strings and didn't really find an answer, but did 68 Camaros come with a passenger side grab bar? Or was that only factory installed in 69? And just added on by dealers/owners themselves in 68s? I like the look of the grab bar, but when I research purchasing one they all state for 69 Camaros. I see it in the AIM for 1968, but the kits I see for sale all state 69 and have different looking spacers for the back behind the dash than what is in the AIM for 68. Thanks. Shane

General Discussion / dash pad restoration
« on: February 12, 2017, 08:44:14 PM »
I've scanned through other postings, but many are fairly old. So I'm asking if anyone knows of a good vendor as of now who does repair/restoration on dash pads. I have 3 or 4 cracks in the original dash pad on my 68 Camaro, standard black? Or is the best option to try and fix myself with a vinyl repair kit that I've read about in some other postings? I'd like to keep original if I can get it restored before going and getting a replacement. Any info or help is appreciated. Thanks.

General Discussion / Good source for ring and pinion
« on: January 21, 2017, 04:25:21 PM »
Not sure if this type of post is ok, but wondering if anyone knows a good source in their travels to find a good used 3.31 ring and pinon for a 12 bolt in my 68 BS code rear? Like someone they know who has some of these parts and may be willing to let them go. I'd like to take my car back to original ration versus what's in there now. I've following and checking some selling sites to no avail. Any help would be appreciated. If this is inappropriate please feel free to end the string. Thanks.

Ed, thank you for the information. I'll do some digging then. My car is a 1968 with a 4speed muncie, numbers match on the tran to the camaro. I was under the impression that the neutral safety switch wasn't installed until 69. Thanks.
