    Tire size difference on '80

    255R60-15s were optional for the 1980 models. I'm not certain whether the front finder lips were trimmed for clearance with the 255s. :thumb

    Water Diverter Fixes???

    I'm wondering whether the rubber is any different side to side. My hunch is no and that the only difference in the diverters is the bracket. You might be able to slide the rubber out of a left side bracket and put it in your passenger's side diverter. :thumb

    Question: Data Tag

    Try Google and/or eBay. It is my understanding there are a couple of places where you can get these, the question is why? If your original is gone, you can't honestly replace it. :thumb

    Spare Tire Carrier - proper attachment.

    I would trust the AIM. What model year? 77? I think I have the 77 AIM hard copy, but won't be able to check it until this evening. :thumb

    Spare Tire Carrier - proper attachment.

    Order the assembly instruction manual (AIM) for your model year. The AIM shows how the cars were put together on the assembly line. Catalogue diagrams are sometimes helpful, but can be more generic than model year specific. AIMs are model year specific. You will find the AIM to be helpful...

    hood louver

    I'm thinking it's electric, but would have to check the AIM to be certain. :thumb

    Water Diverter Fixes???

    Use a piece of self stick foam window seal for a temporary fix. All you need to do is keep water out of the rear floor. :thumb

    Question: Anyone know the size of the bolts?!?

    The AIM shows the part number, not the size. The Parts and Illustrations Catalogue lists the size as 7/16" x14 x1 1/4" This particular size is very common throughout the front bumper hardware set up and is used in several different places. Doesn't hurt to keep a few spares around the shop...

    Question: Interior Products

    Soap and water and maybe a toothbrush on hard plastic. Leather cleaner for leather. You can usually use carpet cleaner on carpets and cloth upholstery. SEM automotive interior dye is a good choice if you want to redye parts. :thumb

    That's up to you. Do you want to sell it? If you want to sell it, looks like you could put $150 in your pocket. :thumb

    Help! C3 Windshield Wiper Mechanism and Door Adjustment

    Do you have the assembly instruction manual (AIM)? The AIM shows the wiper door installation and explains some of it. Technically, there is not too much forward/rearward adjustment for the 68-72 wiper doors. If the gap between the wiper door trim and the windshield is too much, it is possible...

    Help with Engine Identification

    V8: this thread is two years old. WA indicates a truck block. For 65-67 it was a 283; in 68 it was a 307; it's a 350 for 69. :thumb

    Headlight problem (about to wink...)

    Vacuum relay for the passenger's side. If you're lucky, it won't me anything more than that. :thumb

    69 with AC and no overflow tank

    If your stock radiator has it's own fill cap, the expansion tank on the fender was not used. Only aluminum radiators without separate fill caps got the expansion tanks. You can check the assembly instructon manual (AIM) for specifics, but AC and AT cars usually got the big four row Harrison...

    Complete list of bulbs?

    Call AutoZone. The only real joker on the list is the lamp at the top of the center cluster which illuminates the HVAC controls. That thing is a special type of animal. :thumb

    Help! 1970 side vent grilles

    Try Google > Images and see what you kick up. I believe only the top edges were chrome on the 70 models, but don't quote me on that. Dr. Dobbins' book is a good photo reference: The NCRS manual you say you don't want has the specifics. :thumb
