Quite a while back I posted a question about my 72 454 with A/C overheating sitting at stop lights or stuck in traffic especially if it was a warm day. I ran into a 68-72 NCRS judge here in my home town and talked about my situation. He wanted me to put my original distributor back in and remove...
72 differential fill plug seems to be leaking. It takes a 5/8 open end wrench on plug but no room to swing wrench ( because of spare tire bucket and half shaft). Is there a tool out there that I can put on my ratchet ( socket/ crows foot or otherwise) to remove without taking spare tire bucket...
Where exactly should the NCRS correct placement of the date code for the removable rear window be located on an October 71 production of a 72 coupe? Thanks.
Did an early 72 ( October 71 production) come originally with the T3 headlight bulbs ( triangle with vertical lines ) I think the GM #4001. Or did they come with the GM powerbeam bulbs. I think that GM # is 6001?
I have an original 72 second edition manual but need the 72 first edition manual ( believe it was a Sept. 71 printing) as my car was a late 71 production car.
Looking for factory tinted removable rear window glass date coded anywhere from Aug to Oct. 71. Must be in good to excellent condition, metal frame not needed.
72, 454, automatic trans., stock rear gear. I noticed a slight grinding/clunking noise coming from the rear. The noise only happens when I turn left at idle speed anything faster there is no noise. I replaced u-joints drive shaft and half shafts 4 years ago. I checked and added the special GM...
Anyone have any experience with replacing the ignition switch on a 72 coupe with tilt/ telescopic? I have the 72 shop manual but only have replaced switches on non-tilt steering columns.
I have 2 sets of center caps.One cap has 3925805 GW 552504 ( HB in a hexagon) and Canada stamped around the center with 2 79 near the center. The other has 2504 directly in the center with K.D. below this number and 2 79 around the center edge. Which one is correct for a 72. Are they both...
I will be driving down to Florida for vacation soon. Does anyone know of some good shops to buy C3 parts new/NOS either in Florida or along the way.Will be taking I-75. Specifically looking for AZ code rally rims and trim rings. Thanks.
What is the correct code stamped on the rally rims for an early 72 coupe? The code I have now is GM K-1-6 stamped on the front of the rim with K 1 also stamped,( just opposite the K-1-6). Are center caps and trim rings coded too? Thanks for any help!!!!!
My luck....While I was changing the drivers side motor mount the hoist broke and the big block fell about 4" ( approx. the thickness of the mount ) on the empty motor mount frame. Looks like most pressure got the exhaust headers but not sure if the front crank pully hit the frame or anything...
Need a new 9 leaf rear spring but heard about ride height being affected after the new spring is installed ( back end up too high) . Prefer to have stock look with the small curved edges on the ends. Who has the best spring at the best price?
I was told that the small block and big block tach drive distributors are the same just the small aluminum band at top of the shaft stamped with the part number was the only difference. Is this true?? Will it fit and perform the same on any 68-74 small and big blocks?
Did the 72 come from the factory with floor mats or was this a dealer option? Did the mats have the cross flag logo and were they black or semi clear vinyl? Any help greatly appreciated!
Need 1 black shoulder harness belt retainer (stops belt from pulling through seat back slot). I think the lap belt has the same shape and size retainer too. Thanks.
I have had major construction in my neighbourhood for the past 2 years.The only way to get on the main street would be to turn my vette into a 4x4. I decided to let her sit on blocks and now after her long slumber I am going to fire her up. When I put her up I put oil in each cylinder (thru...
I removed my rear spring on my 72 to detail it. I replaced the liners with a cheap aftermarket set :( .I reinstalled and drove it for 1 summer and now the metal spring leaves don't seem to line up.I realigned them but they returned to the same cockeyed stance.The new liners don't have the little...
