    Question: C-3 Radio

    I have a radio from a 1970 vette that I am trying to bench test. I put 12.0 volts DC to the input and ground it properly. I have a 10 ohm original working speaker. I get twelve volts to go thru the radio and come out of the wire harness that feeds the convector/amplifier. I can also make the...

    Question: 69 radio option

    Will a radio out of a 1972 fit my 69 coupe. Bubba chopped out the bezel and went aftermarket. I have access to a 72 radio, part number 7937571. Possibly the only difference would be the knobs ? any input would be helpful. Thanx

    Question: production numbers on c3

    My vin tag is not a GM original. Looks to me that it was re-issued thru the state of Ohio. That would explain the asterisk before the numbers and the difference in the spacing of the numbers. Still don't like it... but as long as the tag matches the title I will live with it. I am sure it will...

    Question: production numbers on c3

    production numbers on C3 Thanks for the info. I will try and get a decent pic posted. does appear the spacing between the numbers is larger than the images I have looked at online . possibly remade and done incorrectly or I have been taken by BUBBA. That 3953060 number was under the top cowl...

    Question: production numbers on c3

    my title matches my vin number.............. BUT........ numbers have been inverted making it an impossible number since they did not produce 77 thousand corvettes in 69. The car series number 7 was flipped with the first production number 1. Is it possible a vin could have been stamped wrong...

    Question: wiper door limit switch, normally open or closed wiring ?

    I have 12 volts at this switch and it is wired as a normally closed switch.this is confusing to me,I would think it should be normally open and held closed by the wiper door bracket arm.It is working in reverse right now.is this a matter of switching leads or is there a wiring problem somewhere...

    Question: vacuum system

    I have worked out many leaks and faulty vacuum switch relays on my 69.BUT !!!!! my wipers come on faster than my lift gate can open. The wiper switch cuts vacuum to the lift gate as it should.But the wiper motor is too fast for the gate.Any adjustment or delay possible on the wiper motor. I only...

    Question: VIN # on 69 coupe

    VIN# on 69 coupe other than human error I can not explain it.If the title was lost at one time and reissued maybe the mistake was made at that point.inverting those two numbers would be an easy mistake to make. Just cant trace it back. Going to try and find the chasis numbers and hope they...

    Question: VIN # on 69 coupe

    my vin number on the pillar matches my title.Thats the good news..The Bad news is the production number it is giving me is impossible. the last six numbers on my pillar are 177500.Any chance these numbers were inverted and not caught by inspection. 717500 does make sense, and this number also...

    Question: too much carburetor ?

    to much carb as far as I know the cam and cylinder heads are stock.I do have hooker headers and side exhaust.I would agree that 650or 700 would be a good fit.The car runs very well and never stumbles or loads up .I can just smell that it appears to be running rich.I found a web site and...
