I don't think i have seen this in person. Is it a cross between tan and gold? Metallic? Found a base car that was champagne and now another color.  I like to see the original color on a car just not sure about thus one

Didn't have any luck searching for this. What color should this bracket that holds the booster hose on the intake be? Mine is bare, Jerrys book says natural or silver cadium dichromate. If mine was plated its gone

I have seen these in gray and white. Are the white ones for newer cars? Different part numbers?

Anyone ever see f used for a june 69 muncie?

I am having a tough time getting the rear top shackle bolt and bushing out.  Someone put in regular bolts and trying to change them. No room to do much up there. Anyone got any tricks?

I have been looking and no luck. Anyone know what the correct part number is for front brake pads for  a Z? Seen sets on ebay claiming to be right but different numbers

Eastwood  calls their satin 2k chassis paint 60-70% gloss. The gloss a 80. Jerrys book said 30% for subframe, floors and core support. Anyone used Eastwood satin and is it too much? I can get ppg also. Thanks  for the input

Had several requests for pictures of my white cowl.  I pulled the cover off and it is really painted nice underneath. I just noticed it looks like the start of one of the stripes at the top. Someone painted the firewall with a brush so the line from the black to the white isnt acurate

Trying this again, posting pictures seems to cause me problems

I found both of my fender extensions marked like this. Letters are upside down about 4 inches tall. anyone else seen this?

Anyone have an original z with the open element air cleaner that could post a picture of the passenger side? I would like to see how your hose comes off the valve cover and into the base of the air cleaner. I saw a old road test picture where the hose is on different than mine and trying to figure it out. I have two air cleaner bases, the original and a repop, and the repop doesnt fit right. Tube is welded too far up in it.
Thanks

My z has some problems with the front calipers. The mechanic helping me is concerned the pistons are pretty rusty. I am wondering, can someone rebuild these with new pistons? I have seen kits but with no pistons.  My buddy has a set of calipers off a 69 or 70 chevelle and the pistons measure just over 2.75 inches in diameter. Would these work? we put mine back on and didnt measure them.
also,  does anyone stainless steel sleeve these like corvettes?

Just had my front springs replaced and the moog ones from HBC were 2 coils higher. Car doesn't sit where it should. No one is selling the specific ones anymore so these were genetic  for small block, no air. anyone have better luck? Also appears the back springs are sagging. anyone  tried to rearch them?

hope I got all  the link, it goes off today. After seeing a "survivor" with a replaced block, wrong heater hoses and several other suspectable things, I saw this car and it is unrestored but repainted and has picture of block on engine stand. Gosh whats left that hasnt been restored?? 

I am trying to see what the passenger side of the carb area looks like and have not found a good picture. would someone post an original car please? I am trying to make sure I have all the right clips and brackets.
Thanks

My car should have the 4 clip trim ring but does anyone actually use them? Sounds like they won't stay on and I should just find the later set?

My 69z has fw, Monte Carlo wheels. Will the earlier trim rings fit this wheel? Looking for what is supposed to be on it and would like to run the trim rings until I find the right yh wheel

It looks like my radiator probably needs a core. Normally they come back are look like they are dipped in something nasty!  Any special paint others have used or just plan on using the same on the radiator as what will be the same gloss under the hood?
Thanks

Hello
I am going to have to change my front springs in my 69 Z and wondered if I should change the shocks. Car has mr gasket super drag shocks on the front and monro matics on the back.  Seen kyb and blistens that people liked, along with edelbrocks but jegs doesnt seem to have edlebrocks.
I wont do anything other than a little spirited driving, no racing.  Only person who drove my car was the original owner so the shocks on it have been there a while. I havent drove it enough to know if what I have are any good either

Thanks

I am looking for some clips around the engine, shackles add some other parts. are there any yards I should check with? I am in Ohio and used stuff around here isn't good. Ebay doesn't seem to have much either
Thanks

While cleaning my recent purchase, I found the tag still around the coil spring.
It was really  nice. I was wondering, should I take it off and put it in a scrapebook?

 Buddy of mine said he used a low sheen clear on his tank and lines to keep them from trying to corrode. I am getting a new gas tank and was curious if anyone here has tried it

I am looking for a carb for a 03D car. How close to the engine build has others found the date for the carb

About the last picture is the cowl tag. This isnt off a camaro is it?

tried to paste the picture and couldnt figure it out

Wasnt sure what to think about the I's instead of 1's.  Car is 12A, no x code.  Looks like about 3 weeks from engine to car build, didnt seem too bad.  Dont have the block casting date yet. I do have the trim tag

I have been trying to learn as much as I can while looking at z28s.  Little confused after seeing several.
I found a nice rs car with houndstooth.  It has a console but no wood trim on dash. I read where it should have some on the drivers side. It doesnt.  It also has standard door panels. I am thinking it should have base seats and no console?  It doesnt have the dash assist handle either and no radio.
The other car I saw did have the console and wood on drivers side, and it had the handle, standard seats and door panels.  So was the handle an option or only part of the z87?  Could you get z23 without z87?

Thank you, been spending way too much time reading info on here!
