[Need trans swap info.]

Busmechanic,

 

Thanks for the info. This is exactly what I was looking for. I have some friends that run in the demo derbys. I help them out allot. They're good with torches and big hammers but not much for real mechanical ability. If I find one of these cars they'll buy it to derby and give me the transmission. They never use the drive trains anyway.

 

Thanks again,

I'm planning to swap a TH200r4 into my 72. I was wondering how to know all the GM cars that came with this transmission so I'll know what donors to look for. I'm planning to have it completely rebuilt but I want to buy a whole car (running) and part it out.

 

Thanks

Most of what is on it is “Goodtime music by the Chevrolet Orchestra” but some of these are by the original artists.

Well, I'll have to think that over. Thanks for the information.

Does anyone know if the montes came with the stainless/chrome trim piece around the gas/brake/park pedal? I like the way it looks but I’m not sure if it’s correct for our cars.

Yea, I thought it was a good deal for 20 bucks because, where else are you going to find one. The best part is it still plays and it sounds pretty good. Not my choice in music but hey... It works!

Buster,

 

I see your car has the 8 track in it. Mine does too but it's just the AM 8 track stereo. No FM I was wondering if you have one of these?

Bones, the zip here is 45320.

 

Buster, That is one amazing looking Dash!! I had a 72 with that color interior back in 75. It didn't look as good as your does now! Mine was buckets/console too. The one I have now is bench. I have everything to switch it to buckets but I have the build sheet and it says bench so I'm having trouble making the choice.

Bones,

 

Sounds great let me know.

 

Buster,

 

Thanks for the offer. I'll be happy to pay the shipping. I've heard about those conversions. I was thinking of going that way until Don offered to modify the one I have. The only trouble is he said he doesn't know if it will work or for how long. When you're ready let me know. Who knows... if this works maybe we could repair a whole bunch of them.

 

Sometimes it's a burden to want it "Just like it came from the factory".

[Clock-to-tach conversion complete]

I don't want to sound like a beggar but if any one is removing their old clock and is planning on trashing it I would like to get one. I have a friend (watch maker) who is developing a method to repair them but the only one we have is the one in my car and I don't want to risk screwing it up if the idea doesn't work. Let me know and thank you.

[Power Trunk button]

I thought it was pretty good too! I was just looking for the general neighborhood so it would look stock. We’re talking dead on now! Thanks again. Joe

[Power Trunk button]

Hey thanks guys.... Now do I really want to drill a hole in my perfect dash??? Even inside the G/B??? I Guess so...

[Power Trunk button]

Sorry, Yes I'm aware it goes in the glove box but I was wonering on the right side, top, left side? That's what I was wanting to know. Any help would be appreciated... Thank you

[Power Trunk button]

Can anyone tell me the correct position for the button for the power trunk? Where does it mount?
