Re: [Chevelle-list] Clay bars
I haven't used it on my chevelle but I did use it on my '86 Corvette prior to me selling it - My vette was a deep wine color and the clay bar brought out the richness of the paint - Secret only do a small area at a time back and forth, not in a circular motion; keep the surface of the car wet and constantly fold the bar into itself similar to using bread dough - Most important - if you accidently drop it on the ground DO NOT REUSE IT You'll end up damaging your paint - Also once you use it on your wheels DO NOT REUSE IT ON THE BODY OF THE CAR!!! The clar bar will pick up any brake dust Rich '70 SS Chevelle coupe '01 Corvette convertible > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: chevelle-list@chevelles.net> Date: Thu, 9 Oct > 2008 19:14:40 -0500> Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] Clay bars> > I may try it, > but it sounds like plenty of work!

Re: [Chevelle-list] 1972 Chevelle Wiper Motor...
I bought a replacement set for my 70 Chevelle from either Year One, C.A.R.S. Inc, or OPG I can't remember which. It comes with the isolation mounting bushings and the screws. Three each. Ridiculously priced though, or at least I thought so, but if you want the correct original style there are not a lot of options. Maybe a parts yard that you could go and pull them off of one of the parts cars. Chuck Speake 1970 Chevelle Malibu Glen Ellyn, IL.

Re: [Chevelle-list] Hidden wipers?
Pelle When you stop the hidden wipers, they should stop near the hood, and then there is a distinct movement where they go into park.If you have this distinct movement, but they are still not lowered all the way, you may need to remove the arm & reinstall a bit lower. If you do not have the distinct PARK movement the problem is more likely in the motor or electrical connection.
