Hi Chuck, My wife ( Shes the one that caught you changing clothes) has a suggestion for CB04: During the awards ceremony she suggests that you have a slide show or video presentation of the winning cars as you anounce them. It's impossible to know if the car you voted for won unless you know the owner. Just our .02
CB03 was great and know 04 will be better.

 Gents,
 for those of you that have sand blasting units at your house. Do
you
 ever have problems with the media not coming out through the hose? I am
 using glass bead and don't have that much time on it, but I can get it to
 work for a few seconds then it stops spraying media, only air comes out or
 very little media. I often have to shake the table top unit to get the
media
 to fill back down in the bottom as well.

 I have a craftsman air dryer at the tank, but maybe the humidity is
causing
 some of it to be sticky? It will sometimes develop a small hole in the
 media pile near the end of the suction tube instead of caving and filling
 back in. I'd really like to be able to use this thing and haven't got that
 much use out of it yet. Might I need to change media already? Should I put
 another air dryer on the line?

 Thanks!
   Steve

Re: [Chevelle-List] EFI on old motors

[Dwight Fulton]

EFI in no way will put "undue stress" on the engine or make it run hotter but, it will make it run smoother  more efficently which tranlates into lower emissions and in most cases better MPG. The setup is costly and can be a hassle getting tuned in correctly but, you are rewarded with a very dependable, driveable and low maintence engine.

Hey all, 
 
I have a friend that has an 80 Vette and he wants to add an after market EFI 
on his motor. 
His dad is trying to talk him out of it. He says that the EFI will burn 
hotter and put undo stress on the motor. 
I think he is way off base here. But I thought I would ask the expert panel 
and see what you all think. 
I think he will be much happier with an EFI. And get even better performance 
out of it.

What is the consensus of the Chevelle community when it comes to clones? I 
have a 66 Malibu that will have an SS hood and the SS paint scheme in the 
rear. I will leave Malibu on the sides and not sure what I will put in 
front of the blacked out grill. It will have a fuel injected 327 so I will 
use the 327 flags on the front fenders. 
In your opinion is this considered bad taste? Of course you can do anything 
you want to your car, but the Corvette community seems to shake their head 
at anything but factory looks. (You wouldn't put a Z06 emblem on a '63 if it 
really wasn't) Just don't want to be an 'outcast' !!!

Hi Dwight, 
 In 22 years of collecting and selling vintage wheels I have seen one 15 x 7 wheel by this manufacturer EVER. You have to realize the one I have was probably a dispay wheel. I say this because of the time frame these wheels were made. 1963-66. Even the Corvettes only have 6" rims when the cars were made. Your vintage manufactuerers didn't start building wider until wheel well started to open up in 1969. 
 So to answer your question I have one wheel in 15 x 7. I do have a set of 15 x 6's. They have been repolished and repainted and have nice used (repolished) aluminum center caps installed on them for $2500. 
 I will sell the single wheel but it is the Drag Mag with the window in the spoke for $300.

With out this part the gas in the back bowl drains into the intake when I shut off the car. I'm afraid if this keeps up very long it will wipe out my engine. I bought this used and the plate wasn't in it. Couldn't figure out why gas kept running in the intake. Looked at an exploded view and there it was. Any ideas? Thanks,Vernon

Re: [Chevelle-List] parts

[Dwight Fulton]

Rocker panels are pretty straight forward they go on pretty much as they come off but, door skins are a different story and can be tough to put on without damage unless you've done it B-4. I would suggest you get someone that's done it to help you. I am not trying to imply that you can't do it it's just tricky getting the flange bent back over the door frame without damaging the skin. Also you must take care in aligning the skin on the door frame in the right place B-4 welding so when you hang the door you can align it with the fender and quarter. I would suggest you get the flange folded back over the door frame  not weld it  then hang the door so you can align the skin with the quarter panel  fenderand then tack weld in place then remove and finish welding. This way you can be assured that everything lines up.

Just an FYI. I found a new supplier for bucket seat foam sets and unlike my 
previous supplier (who always seemed to have them on backorder), they list 
separate sets for 1966-69 and 1970-72. They say that the hog ring locations 
are different for each of these year ranges even though the overall shape of 
the foam is the same, and that these foams will be a better fit than the 
ones that are supposed to fit all of those years because the hog ring 
indentations are in the right places. 
 
Anyway, just passing along the info that there seems to be a source for more 
accurate reproduction foam sets (they are also more expensive, so I will 
continue to carry the others for the price-conscious, just remember to order 
early because they are always backed up).

bugs out of them. I bought mine used (but in excellent condition) for $800. 
It would be worth about $10,000 today.

Re: [Chevelle-List] New GTO pics - what has happened to our beloved A-bodycousin?

[Dwight Fulton]

To be honest, I welcome any RWD offering from GM as long as it's RWD  V8 powered. What they call it doesn't matter. How it performs does. Calling this "Aussy" a GTO is one thing but, it will never be a GOAT. Same goes for GM producing a new"Chevelle", it will never compare to a SS396 or SS454.

Re: [Chevelle-List] New GTO pics - four door, V6, FWD pieces of crap

[Dwight Fulton]

I believe that if the General would bring back the 70-72 Chevelle body 
style( with a few updates ) and put "New Technology" in them as: LS1, overdrive 
trannys, Modern engine management systems i.e.: MPG's. They would sell the H 
out of them. I'd beat a path to my local Chevy dealer.

I'm glad to see the big 3 back in the (Hi-PO) market. I believe if they 
follow thru with support and service that they can starting pulling 
the"fast  furious crowd" away from the rice burners and get 
them in some US iron. They need to built some stripped down versions (like the 
old Roadrunners)that are cheaper to buy and that will helpexpand the base 
of interest in performance cars by maybe allowing young guns the chance to buy 
in.

 The fastest, safest and best way to strip a car is acid dip. It will cost about the same as media blasting. Maybe a little more. They don't use sand. Sandblasting is one of those universal words everyone uses to describe what they want done. They do sandblast the frame, I'll get mine done this spring. Acid dipping will get in every nook and cranny and remove EVERYTHING. Rust, grease, paint, sealer, etc. But you get back virgin looking steel. They bake it in an oven to melt and loosen everything then dip it and then it is run through a neutralizing bath. Just had mine done and I couldn't be happier with it. The solid floors I thought I had.. well their not so solid. I have to replace two small sections in front. Right where the air conditioner was. I had a Mustang media blasted once and it turned out to be a nightmare. It will punch holes in weaker metal even if there are no holes there now.

To unsubscribe from this service you must first purchase a 
Craft-O-Matic Adjustable Subscription Cancellation Unit. The unit 
can be 
obtained from most hardware stores and dental clinics. 
Be sure to obtain the proper permits to operate the unit from the 
Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the Food and Drug Administration 
in 
Washington D.C. USA. 
Be sure to carefully unpack the kit and place each component in its 
accompanying mesh safety bag. 
Mount the Pershing DF4 mesinator on top of the perforated Gerring 
Mach 
77 refibulator and attach them using the eight-millimeter torque 
fork. 
Be sure that the refibulator is mounted at a 66 degree angle and 
properly dispersed so that it is flush with the curved section of 
the 
Pyrex thistle tube. 
Place the four sections of the triangular separation gear into the 
posture cylinder and lock them into place using the band aid 
adhesive strip. 
Insert the wiggling pin into the wobbling hole, making sure that it 
seated correctly. 
Place the D cell battery and the eleven 9 volt batteries in the 
power 
chamber. 
The device should be calibrated before operation using the optional 
digital corkscrew accessory pack prior to operation. 
Insert the digital corkscrew through the electronic combustion 
service 
chamber using caution not to touch the reinforced tungsten igniter 
control module and quickly turn the inverter drive to 28.6 degrees. 
Turn the Craft-O-Matic Adjustable Subscription Cancellation Unit 
upside 
down and hit the bottom plate with a 48-ounce ball-peen hammer while 
shaking the unit vigorously. 
Force open the door to the incineration valve compartment and set 
the 
pressure gauge to 719 psi. 
Close the door and seal it shut with duct tape. 
The unit should now be properly calibrated and ready to use. 
Before activating the Craft-O-Matic Adjustable Subscription 
Cancellation Unit, you must first elevate it to a height of 229 feet 
above sea level to insure that the unit receives the proper oxygen 
level 
and barometric pressure. 
Point the aerial to 17 degrees north by northeast to within the 
parameters of the Telstar GS-2 weather satellite and apply pressure 
to 
the wing shaft on the southern most section of the modular 
accelerator. 
Using the special ratchet adapter supplied with the unit, rotate the 
heater core to the "on" position. The "on" position has been 
obtained 
when the green light begins to flash, signifying that the red light 
is 
about to go off. 
Once the red light is off, flip the toggle switch labeled "ON/OFF" 
to 
the "ON" position and count to 47 before logging on to the system. 
Logon using your username and password and wait for the prompt. 
Once prompted you must check the box with the appropriate action you 
wish to take and then press the pressure release button and turn off 
the 
compressor while turning the hand crank at 231 meters per minute. 
Next, press control, alt, delete, caps lock, shift, number lock, 
escape 
and tab simultaneously. 
Press enter. You will have one second to complete the procedure. 
If you fail to respond in the time limit allowed, simply purchase a 
new 
Craft-O-Matic Adjustable Subscription Cancellation Unit and start 
from 
the beginning.

Heya Dwight... I can't speak from experience as far as the El Camino goes, but I can say that yes-- mirrors can be fitted from another car.. Specifically I know as of a few years ago Classic Industries (the Camaro people) had NOS bullet mirrors for their 70-72 f-bodies... They looked pretty identical to the bullet mirrors on my Chevelle... I know for a fact my driver's side bullet mirror is original to the car (paint was a 100% match)... However, the passenger side was blue underneath where it mounts to the door and way behind the mirrored glass.. Given my car's ...questionable... heritage (read: some unsavory characters have owned my car!) I'd assume the passenger mirror did NOT come off a 71/72 Chevelle :) I know they were popular all throughout the 70's and 80's... A pretty easy retrofit.. 
 
Raj 
 
...PS Just remember to drill your holes in the right area.. heheh.. The driver's door I scored at the junkyard for my car had the regular square chrome mirror and my paint and body guy totally drilled in the wrong spot for my bullet mirror.. hehe.. He drilled where the old chrome mirror mounted forgetting that the bullet mirrors mounted down a bit farther to compensate for their size/shape... heheh.. He was angry to say the leasy :)

Bullet mirrors were on option on 72 Chevelles. Not 100% sure on 71 but I think they were an option as well. Usually the bullet mirror came in driver-side only configurations with dealerships adding the passenger side. 
 
From my Chevelle Restoration Guide: 
 
"For 1971 and 1972... However custom bullet mirrors, RPO D35, were available for these two years. With the SS package the driver's side mirror was remote control and was listed as part number 9878201. the body of the mirror was painted to match the color of the car. This option is not well known and is fairly rare. It was available only as a factory-installed option."

If you're not too concerned with originality, check the wreckers for 
'80s bullet mirrors. They have a gasket between the body and the 
mirror which was body-specific. I got a pair from a Caprice that, 
when bolted to my 67, were not level. However, a pair of gaskets 
from a Monte Carlo were just the ticket.

On70-72 Chevelles the "Upper Ledge is wider  the Radius of the door panel is different  there is a body sculpture line in the Chevelle that the Elkys don't have. Ft Fenders are also different.70-72 Chevelle wagons  Elkys are the same though. I'm not sure but believe 68-69 Chevelles  Elkys doors  fenders will interchange.

Everyone, My 72 El Camino has a 10 bolt open rear end in it. Does nayone know if Chevy used only 8.5" gears that year or could it have 8.2" gears in it? If they used both then I'm have to crawl under it and ck it out.
Reason I asked I'm trying to find out how much$ it will cost to convert it to Posi  put 
3.55 or 3.73 gears in it.

 One of the body guys I know always uses body panel adhesive to install
1/4's

a
 panel crimper to form a step...fits  secures the patch with adhesive  1

 2 tapping screws.  Once the adhesive is dry, remove the screws, and all
you
 need is a skin of filler.  No heat warpage, adhesive seals the lap joint
so
 it can't hold water, no grinding welds.  It works for him.

 I don't know if he would use it on floorpans, though.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Welding Sealing

[Dwight Fulton]

I really didn't mean to go ballistic either but, panel adhesive isn't
designed to be a stand alone product. It was developed to aid in panel
alignment and to stop or at least help deter Panel Walk during welding.
It should never be used by itself and the panel or patch never welded.

 Absolutely correct!!

 Sorry guys,  I was WAY too vague about floor pans!  I think in no way
shape
 or form should panel adhesive be used for floor pans.  I would never use
it
 for any car floor pan.  That's a structure point.  Absolutely NOT
acceptable
 for that application.  It does make a good patching technique for an
 exterior panel, but that is as far as it goes.

 My comment,  I don't know if he would use it on floorpans, though. , was
 not supposed to suggest that it could ever be an acceptable alternative to
 proper welding and sealing of the floor panels, just a comment I should
not
 have typed.

 You have my apologies for the confusion.

 I just called one of the sheet metal manufacturers and was told that the
 full quarter panels (not skins) for the 69 Chevelle are expected to be
 available by next spring. Keep your eyes peeled as they say.

 Makes me wonder where they get the cars that they test-fit these things

 I wonder if they take volunteers, or if they just go to some junkyard and
 buy a car for that purpose. It's probably the latter.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Re: Repro Sheetmetal

[Dwight Fulton]

I have been doing bodywork for almost 30 yrs. now and in my experience 
there are no perfect panels. Even new sheetmetal from the Big 3 has to have some 
rework done on it before it's perfect. The thing to remember is you get what you 
pay for. If your buying 1/4's buy the full quarter , they always fit better than 
skins but they will still need some massaging to fit. 
Patch Panels are the worst, Partial skins are better, Full skinsare 
even better  Full Panels are even better  FactoryNOS is

Dave, It's impossible to remove door skins  then replace the same skins as they are welded on and could not be removed without inflecting major damage to them. If you only have small dents  dings remove the door panels  window regulator  glass, them repair the damage.

  Hey! 
  
  I'm looking for a pair of front coils for a 67, with a slightly 
  stiffer-than-stock rate. I currently have a pair that are originally 
  intended for a big block with air and auto - what I thought would be 
  the highest stock rate. Anyhow, I'd like to move up a little in 
  spring rate. Can anyone recommend one aftermarket manufacturer over 
  another? Dropped coils are okay as well, because I'd be cutting 
  stock height ones. 
  
  As well, is there an easy way to remove and replace door skins? I 
  have some dents and dings that would be easy to pound out, if I could 
  get just the outer skin off the doorframe and have some simple way to 
  re-attach it. 
  
  Thanks, 
  Dave.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Looking for some parts

[Dwight Fulton]

Tim, You can dye your interior parts black with vinyl prep  vinyl dye. Many OEM interior parts came to the dealership in one color only ( mostly tan and the bodyshop tech dyed it) If you prep the parts correctly and use good quailty prep  dye it will last a long time. On the steering wheel you would be better off replacing it.

I also need to repaint some of the metal interior parts like the glove box  door, pillars, headliner trim. Does anyone know what color that is? Is it  called dark green or Hunter Green or something like that? I tried that  interior paint that OPG sells and it sucks. No matter what I did, it would  not stick. It kept separating from the metal and leaving circles, almost as  if the metal was contaminated with oil or grease. I tried every single  cleaner/degreaser I had and still did it. I could not even get any type of  primer to stick to it very well. Any suggestions???

[Chevelle-List] New Club

[Dwight Fulton]

Steve,   I don't make my living doing bodywork anymore. I just work at home 
on my cars and help out my friends whenever I can.  I have a 2 car garage at 
home that I can do anykind of restore work I need to.  So thats how I limit 
myself to Chevy's.  Currently I have the 72 Elkie that I just got started on 
 I have a 84 Z28 that I bought from the orginal owner  it only has 57,000 
miles on it.  I hope to have the frame of the 72 rebuilt and ready by Dec. 
and then start on the bodywork.

If I can be of any assist to anyone out there fell free to let me know. My 
knowledge is about 15 - 20 years old as I haven't worked in a dealership 
since the mid 80's, but that works out pretty good if your interested in 
67-85 Chevys.

I read several emails refering to 10-13 as a meeting date for the new club 
but never got  ( or saw the orginal about the date??)

[Dwight Fulton]

Steve, As Don's Idae of Tri-State Chevelles sounds good, That could include guys from northern KY also. Maybe we could get one of the current clubs to post a message on their web site about a new club forming in the Tri-State area and leave a couple of email address's for them to contact if interested.

Re: [Chevelle-List] New Chevelle club forming in South-West Ohio

[Dwight Fulton]

Steve, While I can give you no real advice on starting a new club I do want 
to encourage you to proceed. I live in Indiana about 40 miles west of 
Dayton, OH. and would welcome a club closer to home. Please let me know if I 
can help.
PS. The Paddock resto parts supplier is only about 20 miles from me  they 
might be talked into helping, don't know for sure but it might be worth a 
shot.

Date: Thu, 19 Sep 2002 21:59:35 -0400

Gents,
 I am working on starting a new club in Ohio for Cincinatti and
Dayton area Chevelle owners. While there is one club in Ohio already,
it's farther than most of us in South West Ohio (  maybe northern
Kentucky and Southern Indiana?)are willing to drive to attend meetings.
The idea is to only recruit those unwilling/unable to join the current
club in Columbus, and to be brother clubs to include combined
cruise-ins.

I am interested in talking to people that got new clubs off the ground,
learn about club charter, rules, and the good, bad and ugly on
affiliations.

What are the benefits of talking to local businesses to your club? I am
thinking that if we can get discounts for club members and provide
information on what businesses can provide what services this would be a
win-win.

Any other advice and do's and don't 's would be appreciated.

Thanks!
  Steve
