Default what are these C-1 parts?

Hi Guys, Having a new engine and trans installed in my 58 C1 Vette. The guy that removed the old engine and tranny gave me boxes of parts that came off the old engine/tranny assemblies.

I have managed to figure out most all of the parts, but need an experts help in finding out what these few remaining parts are for/use.

I have attached photo's of what's left I can't identify. Can anyone please help me out? So I'm not confused can your reply let me know which photo you are identifying. First photo seems to be metal nut and second photo seems to be two plastic nuts.

Thanks




Thanks for any help you can provide... Bruce

The red part appears to be a distributor hold down clamp. The bottom part is a generator bracket swivel.

The second pic are rear leaf spring bushings I think and the fourth are U joint bolts.

Third pic is incorrect distributor hold down. Fifth is upper right water pump bolt, with generator adjusting arm fastening to the shorter threaded end.

Hi 59BlueSilver,

I realize they are u joint bolts, but do you know where in the car are they used? What part or equipment do they secure?

Also, I think the second pic are either rubber or nylon bolts, but where are they used? The leaf springs were never touched so probably not used on leaf springs.

thanks for your leads, Bruce

The U-joint at the rear of the driveshaft is attached to the yoke (below) of the rearend with the U-bolts.

First pic looks like acme threads. Could be part of the front spindle or the nut on a jack.
