'67 SS-350 CHROME wiper motor cover???
« on: January 19, 2009, 06:55:09 PM »
I found a '67 rs/ss in '01 that looked 34 years old under the hood. Has original motor, trans, alternator, etc. as well as the original chrome air cleaner lid, valve covers, oil fill tube w/ flat chrome cap all in need of attention. But the wiper motor, looking old as well, has a chrome end cover with the correct number stamped in it along with chrome 'long bolts' holding it on.  Was a chrome wiper motor end cover ever part of the SS underhood chrome dress-up? Thanks, Gary

Sure - some previous owner had it chromed.

Except nothing else had been done to this car in forty years.
The chrome looks forty years old. As did the car when I found it.

So, "Sure" you have seen this done before or "Sure" we know
everything there is to know about 'First Gen' Camaros and there
is no longer a need for something unique to be asked of CRG?

I realize the possibillity of it being done by someone other than GM.
I am looking for the possibility that someone alse has seen this before.

It didn't come from Chevrolet chromed.  "Sure" if Paul and John said it, I believe it.
