RE: [Chevelle-list] a-pillar gauge mounts?
I checked Auto Meters web sight and they do show two different ones a single and a double gauge style. They do not however show a picture of them. Email me off line and I will scan the page out of their catalog and send it to you or if you have time just order one of their catalogs. The catalog I am referencing is a 2001 printing and they may have added or subtracted items since then. They call them Gauge Pods and are for Chevelle, GTO, Lemans 68-72. . They do show triple pods but they are for full size newer Chevys and Rice Burners. Hope this helps.

Re: [Chevelle-list] what paint for rear end?
I'M NOT SURE THAT por15 WOULD BE THE BEST answer for new clean metal. As I recall it adhears best to a slightly rusted surface. There may be a prep available to age the metal though. Also read carefully the prep instructions health warnings at www.por15.com . Its good stuff but can be dangerous. I used it also am happy with the result. On 9/22/05, D.R.

[Chevelle-list] E-brake cable retainer clip needed
Another small part that I need is one of the retainers that hold the intermediate e-brake cable to the rear cables. There is a picture of one here: http://johnnasta.com/IMG_0002.JPG If anybody can spare one from a parts car, please let me know. This would be in front of where the rear lower control arm attaches to the frame. I ordered a new intermediate cable but can't hook it up without this little clip. Thank you, John Nasta

[Chevelle-list] equalizer support cable also needed
Upon further investigation of the service manual, I see that there is supposed to be a equalizer support cable on the right side to pull the E-brake cable across the transmission mount area. I don't have this part either, which explains why there was so much slack in my intermediate cable (aside from it being kind of chewed up). So, if anybody out there thinks they have that clip, please see if you have this cable as well. Otherwise it's time for me to start calling my favorite junkyards. Thanks, John Nasta
RE: [Chevelle-list] E-brake cable retainer clip needed
Sorry, John I do not have the clip you need, but I do have a brand new intermediate cable (from Year 1) that I do not need and would like to sell $16 plus actual shipping cost. It is designed for 68-72 models with TH-400 according to Year 1 website (part number 5190N). The Year 1 catalog said I needed two and I had two on my car, but the new cable is designed such that it loops through the equalizer to feed both back e-brakes. john -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Nasta Sent: Friday, September 23, 2005 2:45 PM To: The Chevelle Mailing List Subject: [Chevelle-list] E-brake cable retainer clip needed Another small part that I need is one of the retainers that hold the intermediate e-brake cable to the rear cables.

RE: [Chevelle-list] E-brake cable retainer clip needed
According to the 1968 service manual the intermediate cable always went through the equalizer and then to both back wheels. I would be happy to take the cable off your hands but I already ordered one locally and it is supposed to be in tomorrow. I also have a TH350.

RE: [Chevelle-list] E-brake intermediate cable
A question has come up about the intermediate cable. My car came w/ a powerglide, but I changed it to a TH350. Delco lists these: INTERMED BRAKE CABLE TURBOHYDRAMATIC INTERMED BRAKE CABLE 3 SPD HEAVY DUTY OR 4 SPD INTERMED BRAKE CABLE 3 SPD EXC HEAVY DUTY and Wagner lists these: INTERMED BRAKE CABLE TH400 TRANS 2DR INTERMED BRAKE CABLE TH400 TRANS - MALIBU SS INTERMED BRAKE CABLE EXC TH400 TRANS 4DR Which one would you say I need? A TH350 is a three speed, but when they are saying 3-spd heavy duty or not, are they referring to manual transmissions? There was no 4-speed automatic at that time. On the Wagner listings, it seems like it could only be the third one, except that an El Camino is on a station wagon frame, and that one doesn't seem to fit 4-door cars. I'm actually surprised that it makes a difference. It's not like there's such a shortage of space under there for a cable.

Any top coat on top of the POR-15?? Donnie
Re: [Chevelle-list] what paint for rear end?
You can top coat it. There is a specific procedure to follow. For specifics on the proceduresee the POR web site www.por15.com . But as I recall, you coat it, let it cure for a while, then before it cures hard ( still slightly tacky) apply the top coat.
