That cap looks like it may be an adaptation or extension for the front and rear bracket???? Other than that, it looks to be the same, at least GM functionally. That cap and the brackets, I guess are long gone. Am I now looking for just the cap and brackets or the whole thing? I got these blue door panels as they were in better shape than my dark saddle ones. Can they be recolored to the saddle and if so, how best???
Thanks for the advice and I joined the club.

It looks correct. If you pull the tank off , be careful with the gasket, it will reveal the correct color if it’s been repainted. Do you still have the valve above the rear differential, center to passenger side?
I am not at the car. I'll look later and get a better picture than this one.

You can see the holes in the fender well. Save that for reference if you replace them.
Thanks for sure

This is the pump. If it's wrong, I will be looking for a correct one. This one might someone else happy.

Hey Dale i noticed that the car doesn't have the G67 auto level compressor. Do you still have it? I know they are hard to find parts for. One of the needles in the hay stack.
Yes, off the car and not the correct one, I don't think. I'll post a picture later.

See my prior post as there wasn't enough room for two photos. Maybe build date came from that door sticker. It's bent at the bottom right corner where date probably is. It's getting painted right now, but I did tell them not to paint over the tag. Hope they don't break off that corner.

Very nice. The proof is quite visible.

How could I determine my build date? From the build sheet?

Welcome! As already stated, there’s damn near limitless knowledge here.
I hope now that it’s in pieces, you decide to throw out six of them. Yeah… I’m talking about those body side moldings 😂
All kidding aside, welcome to a great site. More pix are always appreciated and enjoyed.

I hadn't planned on putting them back on. I like the clean look but would put them back on if they are a desirable dealer option and if it makes the car more marketable. They were not an option on my build sheet, so not judged correct in the vette universe. Before shot of rebuild.

I am also a member of the NCRS and have many publications on 1968 Corvettes. I just got a 1971 SS Monte Carlo and would like to educate myself on dates and numbers. Any suggestions? NCRS has a judging manual that is extremely helpful.

I do plan on joining FGMCC. I have made contact with Jared from YouTube with some questions.

Thanks, and I did get those two manuals. Great reference books. Do you know of any books about interesting facts or details about the first-generation cars. That picture is when I bought it. It is now in pieces and that is why I need information so badly, to put it together again, correctly.

How can the Julian transmission date exceed 365? See forum post
- Decoding Turbo Hydra-Matic 400 Transmission. I have seen that number in the 500"s.

If someone wants to find and purchase a load leveling pump and tank for a 71 SS, can you request wanted items on this forum? Maybe request where a good place to look might be? Mine is wrong and I would like to buy or trade and buy a correct one.
Thanks
