[Chevelle-List] Dic brake upgrade - new twist?

2002-10-25 Thread Chevelle 69
Ok,
 I went out and bought a set of spindles off a 94 caprice. $30 each
side. How do I verify I got the right ones?

Why again ..other than the rim lug nut spacing do I want to get rotors
from an earlier Camaro/Firebird? If the lug bolt spacings are the only
thing, couldn't I go with a rim that would fit a 5 inch pattern? ...then
I could use the 94 Caprice rotors and calipers right?

Hi Krister,
Yes, the remote mirror was available for 66 as part of the 
comfort and convienience package (RPO Z19), but it is very rare.  Also 
included in the Z19 option were door edge guards, under hood lamp,  and 
luggage compartment (trunk) lamp.  The remote mirrors are very hard to find 
and fetch a top price.  I bought one off eBay awhile back, but it turned out 
not to be correct for Chevelle, so buyer beware.  Good Luck.

[Chevelle-List] '66 Chevelle remote mirror confirmation

2002-10-25 Thread Krister Meister

Can anyone confirm whether or not a driver side door mirror was available
as a remote on a '66 Chevelle SS.  My '66 SS Chevelle has a standard mirror
on the drivers door, but has a remote mirror knob on the drivers door
panel.  I believe reading some where that a remote drivers door mirror came
with a "convenience package" which also featured two way / day - night rear
view mirror and under hood / trunk light - can anyone confirm?

Thanks,

RE: [Chevelle-List] Cutting front coils

2002-10-25 Thread Craig A. Ellis
I just read an article on this in Super Chevy - last month's issue with the
yellow 502 BBC on the cover with Hilborn FI stacks - in the throne room this
morning. The gist of it is cut 1/2 coil off at a time and put them back in
to test ride height. Be careful how you tighten the a arm bolts, etc., and
let them settle a bit before making your decision. Also, it's OK to use a
torch as long as you know how to use one correctly - the localized heating
of the coil only removes the temper where you cut. On the other hand,
cutting it off with a hacksaw can't be too bad either.

I'm gonna drop the rear end of my 70 about one inch and plan to cut 'em off
this winter.

Craig E.

Subject: [Chevelle-List] Cutting front coils


While I'm doing my Disc brake conversion, I'm going to cut the front coils
to drop the front a little. (1 1/2" -2" max.) I know that when you do this,
cutting 1/2 the desired drop off of the springs is the way to do it, but do
you just measure vertically 3/4" to 1"? approx. 1/2 a coil? 3/4 coil? I did
this back in the 80's to a '71 Monte and it looked great. Just cant remember
exactly how much I cut. Or should I just cut a little install and check and
cut as necessary? Anyone recently done this?

Re: [Chevelle-List] Al Vogel's '67 El Camino

2002-10-25 Thread DonnieG67
Spud,

I have seen the rear bumper it is in good shape for a driver.  
Personally, I would have it rechromed if you were going to use it for show.

I will send you pictures of the bumper off list, as well as, the list of 
parts for sale.

Donnie

Hi Spud,

It's been a while since I was there, but I think the bumpers were in decent
shape. Sorry I can't be more sure.
