Probably more information if you look on his site. He knows a lot about suspension stuff.

You are better off with having your questions in your own thread. I split your post out.

I believe the originals were grade 5. But probably doesn't make a whole lot of difference.

Full VIN would be 124378N316771 or 124678N316771

I will update your post to correct the title. Yours had this

Interesting that you could get a Hurst shifter as an option when the Firebird debuted in 1967:

You would have thought that GM would have designed the floor pan originally so it would not have to be modified at the assembly plant when installing the Hurst shifter.

Pontiacs always got the "better" parts. GTOs started getting Hurst shifters in 1964.

If you have never had your car on the homepage, post a pic here and I will try to get you on the list. Try to have the image at a slight angle and not any people in the photo. Thanks.

The pics on the homepage have been updated.

The 69 is a new image, never used here before. The 67 and 68 are recycled images from the first year that CRG added pics on the homepage - retro vibes!

I have your warranty protection book with the POP attached.

YY paint

Finding a BBC in the envelope is unusual.

I can't find the POP for this one at the moment but this convertible had some different docs.

Here is one set I have.

In the plastic envelope - POP, Owners Manual, Body Broadcast Copy, several inserts from GM.

I have one from a 1969 Impala with more than that. That one include the window sticker. 

It varied. Some dealers handed you all the information, some put it in the car.

POP, Owners Manual, accessories manual. Sometimes the sales paperwork.

I will try to post a few pics.

Hole might not be in the correct spot.

So you are not using an original shifter. Got it. Are you using the 67-68 style shifter mount for the Hurst shifter?

Pictures would help!

You might need a custom shifter mount.
