Thought factory wheels were painted black on the back, service wheels were grey?
CBTN Figure 17-9.
The way I read the painting notes:
PLAIN K-H Part No E-82277 Cust PN _____
Coat with Rustproofing Oil: K-H Part No E-82278 Cust Part No. 3958480
Gray Primer K-H Spec B-3352: K-H Part No E-82279 Cust Part No. 3966934
Same as E-82279 except tape identify for Chevrolet Service: K-H Part No E-82280
This relates to the 69 AD rally.
I assume you guys are hashing out the SS AO/YA wheels at this point. Does anyone have a copy of the CBTN for 70-75 & does it contain the K-H drawing with notes on it that might clarify.
Does this mean KH painted the wheels or does it mean they shipped rustproof oiled wheels?
As an aside - The N66 wheels were supplied by Motor City wheel not KH
K-H shipped whatever the customer ordered; the assembly plants ordered GM #3958480, K-H #E-82278. SERVICE ordered GM #3966934, K-H #82280.
If all wheels shipped to plants were raw rust proof oiled KH # 82278 and all wheels shipped as service were to be KH spec B-3352 grey then there is no need for KH# 82279 (which appears to be a grey wheel withOUT tape to identify as a service wheel)
It exists for a reason, internally at KH or?
