Didn't the info I posted on your (same) thread in Yenko.net help you?

Nice.  To smooth out the JB weld, I use a dremel with a carbide cutter, then follow up with some fine sand paper on a square wood stick.

I used JB weld to rebuild my grill and was able to recreate missing chunks with a little masking tape as forms.

For an all original Z28, it is always better to keep/rebuild all components like water pumps. An early 69 model year pump like yours are more rare to find, so keep it!

There are some small rebuilders around that can rebuild and return your original pump.  If you have a press, you can do it yourself, but you will need to practice on other pumps and make some special press blocks.

I have rebuilt my pumps using a kit from ebay (northwest supplier) which have worked well.


New pumps will not look the same as your original and have the part number 3953692. Almost everything has a part number and people will look for that to authenticate a Z.  my .02

One other thing, the filters they sell for small blocks today are a different size (smaller in length) then what came on the car originally.  So the oil quantity might not be the same.   A small amount though, for sure :)

Any REAL locksmith can handle this.  I had some original doorlocks re-keyed to match my new IGN switch, I just called a local locksmith and gave him the locks and keys.

I second Don.  I also have an early 69 (oct 68) 327/210.  We worked out a custom black/gold label and it came out well.

Looked at my side bumper stash and found subtle and not so subtle differences.

let me know which letters (A through E) you want more close ups of.  I parted out many 67-69 Camaros, so not sure what I have. Last one E, might be Pontiac?

I also may have original insulation clips, but not sure about repros.

I also could not load the pic.  Says it is too large (it's 12.2KB, well below the 200KB limit) or server too too long to upload.

Your attachment couldn't be saved. This might happen because it took too long to upload or the file is bigger than the server will allow.

Please consult your server administrator for more information.

KevinW,

Interesting info on your 06? Camaro!  Is your trim tag stamped 05A and should I correct this in the list?

Dave
Dave, yes trim tag is stamped 05A. it's up to you how you want to place it in the list.  It's kinda the same as the stuck convertible Norwood 06A trim tag error, which based on VINs were produced for the whole month of June. :)

Lloyd, thanks for the bolt on snubber pic.  Now I check to see I have the correct bolts!
