I have been doing my usual klutz work and broke a part in the steering column related to the horn. When I pulled the horn knob the three nylon studs on the upper contact assembly snapped. I will fix that but I think I blew a fuse. The Owner's Manual does not tell me how/on what circuit the horn...
The locking tabs are broken off mine and JB Weld is holding the fort at the moment. I wish to replace that connector but it seems that I have to purchase a $400 dash wiring harness to get it!! I don't prefer that option. (And places such as Lectric Limited will not sell components.) Does anyone...
I converted to a #1406 Edelbrock carb from the original Holley a couple of years ago as the Holley was a leaky and ill-performing pain in the ***. At that time I purchased the Edelbrock/Russell banjo carb fitting with in-line filter as well as the braided hose down to the fuel pump.
The...
I posted this elsewhere and got some flak re copyright as to putting up a scanned copy of the original article in the Fall 2006 edition of NCRS's "The Corvette Restorer" as to the function of these parts. So I won't do that here.
But the parts are mine as are the pics. So here goes. The...
Bob,
As you enjoy seeing modern components in C2s, I thought this 1967 on EBay might be of interest to you. A stunning and I am sure, wickedly fast automobile. And its for sale in Canada...
I received mine today from Don for my 1967. A work of art worth framing. I may do so. I can't find the glove box lamp but that is a minor inconvenience. Thanks Don!
I attended a very nice cruise event yesterday in Quebec, Canada. A very nice show! On the way home I noticed my AMP gauge was a wee bit shy on the (-) side rather than a wee bit shy on the (+) side as used to be the norm. I tested the output from the alternator tonight and it looks fine at...
FWIW, they are now available. Received mine last Friday. Looks to be of very good quality. About $75.00 compared to the $300+ fetched on EBay last winter. Source is Shee-Mar.
Yes, I sat down on my driver's seat with a slot-head screwdriver there about three days ago. Nice move! That punctured my prisitine vinyl new seat covers. I can't kick the cat as she was not around and the Wife....well...she kicks back. I had visions of trying to get a new seat cushion from the...
I have searched the archives and visited the Optima web site but I get different opinions on the group size of an Optima battery for a 1967. The choices seem to be 25, 75/35, or 34/78 to replace the normal group 24. There is talk of height extenders, special clamp down brackets, etc. If anyone...
Each for the last 10 years the Business Investment Association of a local heritage and tourist area has held a classic car event the first Sunday in June. The area started life many decades ago as a farmers' (much like a mini version of Quincey in Boston) market and still is, but has branched...
My car sat for six months last winter. It was driven several hours about three weeks ago. That's it since last October. Since then the rain has been terrible and I have played in the garage with with polish and shine while listening to the IPod and stereo for two weeks. Yesterday, with a warm...
Someone published one but I can't find it. One of the magazines. My interior pulls do not work. I have all the restoration parts and a grey-hair at a local GM dealer who knows the skinny but I may have to twig his grey matter.
Our Club had its first road cruise today. About 20 cars showed up. Weather was sunny, mixed clouds with the high temp about 50F. We shunned the four lanes and took a 120-mile route on country twisties connected by small towns full of people who cheered us on. God, kids love Corvettes! Lunch was...
One of the joys of storing a car in winter for six months of each year is discovering how many leaks you have in the spring. It appears that my power steering pump is doing just that. Lost about two ounces since I brought the car home. Are those units available from GM or the likes of UAP/NAPA...
