Anyone have a source for a coil for the cowl hood application? I hope this is the #270? I have one on order from Ecklers, but maybe another week or more before it ships, since they are currently out of stock.

What is the difference in the cowl hood/non-cowl hood coils?

Thanks.

Trying to solve little problems here and there and have run into another one-

My backup lights don't work, and I figured out that this piece of linkage is missing. Car has exhaust manifolds. It looks like all of the other linkage and hardware is in place but this particular piece. I have found repos online, but they don't seem to come with hardware to attach to the reverse transmission shifter lever, or the bellcrank. Is it just a couple of retaining clips I need, or something more?

Any ideas to where I can find these pieces?

Thanks.

I searched and didn't find a very recent thread on this-Any recommendations on a nice trickle charger?

Thanks.

I had a piece of the stainless trim coming loose from one of my tail lights on a 1969 Camaro. Figured I would take the lens out of the housing to clean things up a bit while I had the whole assembly off of the car, and I noticed a light tan colored sealant that is between the housing and lens.

Anyone have an idea of what this is, so I can get the proper replacement when it all goes back together? Looks and feels like plumbers putty, but surely it isn't that simple, or is it?

Thanks.

What are the opinions on plugs to use for a 1969 302? Also, American Autowire factory fit plug wires were recommended for me to buy, but I can't seem to find them on their website. Any other ideas on where to find these plug wires?

Thanks.

Howdy all,

New member here and wanted to ask a couple of questions about a car I recently purchased. I had someone more knowledgeable than me look at the car before the deal to get his thoughts on it.

It is a "69 RS Z/28", but originally was not a RS car, and most likely not a Z/28, but a very tastefully done car in my opinion. If I am reading the cowl tag correctly, it is the correct hugger orange, (white Z/28 stripes) with standard black interior (now black deluxe). I think this is an early Norwood car from the size of the tag, which I read on here. I can't seem to post an image of it.

There is a supposed re-stamped 302, Muncie 4 speed and 4.11 12 bolt in this car, but I have not had time to dig into this and crawl under it yet to try to verify anything. Is there anything in particular that could point to this being a factory Z/28? The only thing I can easily see that could help any is the small dual exhaust hanger plate behind the driver's side rear wheel, but I guess this could have been added also.

Just trying to find a way to confirm, which I may never be able to do!

I bought this as a nicely done, but non-original car, so my feelings won't be hurt either way.

Thanks,

Tony
