I just noticed that these have the earlier heatshield like the 273 but are for a 340, it has a different part number 2863599 not 2946105, the 68 parts book has 2946105[] noting a new number. Pages in the parts book get updated as changes happen. So has anyone ever seen one like this?
In another...
If I take the question literally, has anyone ever found a broadcast sheet in a mounted tire?
I never have, why? was it attached to a wheel to pair them with the car, pointless once the tire is mounted.
This is new to me.

This is Pearblossom, the nearest thing even remotely close to an industrial/warehouse complex is probably 15 miles away in Palmdale, as i mentioned earlier, a desolate desert community of 2435 people.
Pearblossom (what looks like complex is the Los Angeles Aqueduct pumping station and solar...
I gave up trying to find a place capable of holding a dozen cars, not say it wasn't in this area I'm just saying knowing this area that Pearblossum is a desolate desert community.
A lot of this...

That was my though, I bet this was an unmanned shop and not on someone property, rent up there is cheap compared to the LA area. This could have happened over night or days, hard to say how long is was from when the owners were last there.

69, no point in posting VIN as , I'm not doing a full build again and I would not trust any "used" engine. Not sure someone would want to spend what it would take to get it, never know.

I already checked with my nephew and he has my chain. It is highly unlikely that I'd have it done in three weeks, but you never know. I already have a new molded hood pad. As soon as the car has been cleared for a road trip I'm going to Oregon, maybe I'll stop by on the way there or back.

One thing about my paint guy is he is fast, some times too fast. Even when I give him specific instruction he forgets something, otherwise he does great work at a fair price.
He used a tinted sealer, the above picture is just sealer.
While at his shop I had the new windshield installed...
The engine is out, I had a friend over that has actually pulled a 6 out and understood its quirks.
For the most part it happened quick so no pictures of the pull.
The only issue started when I couldn't find my chain lift sling as I use a carb plate on the v-8s. So I ran down to the parts store...
I just put the Factory number in the Gates search to fine the correct Gates hose

I would have said that 67s should have the holder up by the battery until I got my convertible.
There are no extra holes for the holder, I checked the backside to see if they may have been filled in, nothing, still has the original undercoating.
The car is a late (May) build. Maybe the already...
There is no in or out, in the off position there are no connections, in the on position they are ALL connected.
You can remove the switch and your turn signals and brake lights will still work.
It doesn't care which way you plug it in.
What it does is connect the front left, the front right, the...
Not to add fuel to the fire but these 67 OEM 273 rockers do not have the piss holes. I’d have to look at some more but I have never seen that hole before.

This has been posted before. I think there are some other numbers out there but if it looks like one of these the it is for the years that the form matches.
The non-340 ones.
