69 AC lower shield

[big iron]

Did the lower AC shield shown in A.I.M. UPC C60 B4 (#3 396 shield) go into production? Tried a search but could not find info.
If it did, does anyone have a picture. I assume it was made of plastic.

I've never put my hands on a real one, but see the photo below; it's plastic.

JohnZ,
You have made my day, exactly what I was looking for . Great picture with allot of detail.
The A.I.M. calls for #4 screw and#5 washer, but picture looks like a machine screw w/conical washer (Assembly). Your thought?
Thanks again for your continued input.

I had one on my car back in 76,it was beat up so I threw it away Went to the Chevy dealer to get a new one,they did not have any,& I havent seen one since!I believe they were 5/16 machine screws holding it in place!

Do you remember if there was a 5/16 bolt with washer (assembly) or bolt and washer separate. Was the bolt pointed on the end or flat with a cut out so that it could cut  threads?

I don't recall where I got the photo, but it's obviously a production part.

It's a reproduction of an original part.   I beleive it was made by a guy with the screen name of markx22 on Camaros.net.  He built it off the remnants of an original.

Heres the thread that the pictures came from originally:

Mark,
Thanks for the info. and picture.
Did not think to try Team Camaro and I am a member.
With almost 9,000 low HP BB's built, I wonder how many had AC?
It is obvious that not many,if any of the shields survived.

Thanks again.

Mark ,
Do you have any additional pictures other than the one shown?
Does anyone else have pictures other the John and Mark?
