The little broken leg in the pic is the cause of your first problem (need to hold lever manually). As to the now complete failure, and given the functionality of flashers you have noted, I would be inclined to replace the switch. The 1967-68 units were scarce (big $s) two years but they are...
Bob's reply is, as usual, extremely informative!
I tackled a similar job on my 1967 several weeks ago but the intent was to install three-point, retractable belts. I let the hardware soak in penetrating oil for three days and with some persuasion, things came apart very nicely. If the C2...
John, you don't miss anything! But I will not bring that to his attention. He is an NCRS member BTW. I do not know C1s but he may see this post and take the required action. I am sure your input is appreciated. But just as an aside, that is a damn fine car! I am into C2s but I love that one.
Classic car people always give me the salute, and I do them in return. Here's a pic from this afternoon in Canada's Capital. Classic car show at a downtown historic market. BTW, just across from the US Embassy. Those are 1867/1967 licence plates up front celebrating the 100th anniversary of...

Well, I agree to disagree. The members in our Club have no appreciation for what I drive and its value. I would say about 85% are C4-C5-C6 owners and it's trite, but they are into cupholders and bling-bling. They view my car as a nice piece of history that can be written off as a low-tech...
Lee,
Just e-mail me when you receive the goods. If you do a non-invasive placement of the retractors according to Eckler's instructions prior to drilling (have a friend hold things in place) and try to put the top down you will see what the problem is.
I use Permatex Aviation Form-a-Gasket.
The colour is Chevrolet Orange. Back in those days each GM Division had their own colours.
All water pumps are installed at the time the engine is painted. The water pump casting number may be partially to totally obscured. The fan clutch moutning hub...
