General Discussion / Re: Best way to sell a project camaro

« on: September 06, 2016, 04:37:48 AM »

Thank you all and especially William for your sage advice. I can easily install the engine and transmission and then make an effort to market with full description and lots of pics. The car is located in Mission Viejo, ca if anyone is interested in discussing. Does anyone know which classifieds would yield the best results? Thanks again.

General Discussion / Best way to sell a project camaro

« on: September 05, 2016, 10:09:30 AM »

I have a 67 SS 350 convertible 4speed with A/C. I have been working on this project for a couple of years but will not be able to finish it. All body and paint is done, engine, trans and rear rebuilt. Subframe, brakes and suspension all done. I've already bought most of the parts to complete. It just needs to finish being assembled. Question is how is best way to sell? As a whole car or part it out. I don't expect to get anywhere near the 30k I have invested but I don't want to give it to a salvage yard either. Thanks

Originality / Re: Steering Column Paint Question

« on: May 18, 2016, 08:49:32 AM »

Can anyone say how far down the column was the column and harness painted the interior color? I've seen a 67 coupe where the column and harness were painted down to just past the bracket but I'm not sure it's original.

Originality / Steering Column Paint Question

« on: May 17, 2016, 08:34:13 AM »

I am installing a rebuilt GM tilt wheel column. It came painted black but I need to paint it blue. When installed there is a gap between the plastic column cover and the head of the column exposing a few inches of the wiring harness on the underside. My question is did GM paint the harness that is exposed or was the harness installed after the column was painted? If I need to remove the harness for painting, where can I find that procedure?
Thanks for any help.

Decoding/Numbers / 67 SS Power Drum M/C Confusion

« on: May 14, 2016, 03:53:20 AM »

I am restoring a 67 SS with power drum brakes. Car was built in Norwood in 10-66. I am trying to figure out what is original and what is not. The booster has 0749 stamped on the back (facing rear) of booster tab and 209 on the front. According to your research the number is correct but should it be on the front? Secondly the master cylinder is stamped 5452310 but it does not have bleeders. According to your research the number is for a manual drum brake. However I have seen pics of 67 power drum master cylinders without bleeders. In fact, one of the illustrations on your site where it discusses this issue is of a master cylinder w/o bleeders attached to a power booster. So. as you see it's confusing. I guess my question is have you definitively concluded that all 67 camaros with power drums had m/c's with bleeders? If so, I'll toss mine and look for a proper one.
