If you want 1966 stats, they will be in Noland's Book on C2 Restoration.............or wait awhile and see if anyone else posts them up. I can do it for you if you really must have the info and don't have the book.

Ours is a 'no radio' car, so you can start the count at 1...…
A quick check of the "good" resto houses shows NA (not available any more). LICS, Zip, CC, Paragon, and Wilcox. Ebay has a set as part of the overall heater delete package parts for $950.00. At that price Reno may want to install a heater.
I would advise that he advertise in WTB section and also on this thread. Perhaps someone may have a set. Last price I saw was $80.00 for the set of two. Way too much...........but supply and demand.

as I said should have them. I know I seen them in the catalogs just never paid attention on price. I am sure someone as a pair somewhere

Corvette Specialties has the heater delete plates for 157.00 cheapest I have found
I always wondered why my car has the base 250hp motor but a 4 speed....a few extra bucks would have gotten a 300hp..
Seems odd..
Back then some cars were ordered for dealer stock and to put in showroom window to draw customers in. They were usually base models. Could have been one of those

Reno:
Get some dimensions and a few closeup pics from a forum member and have a shop make them for you. With 3-D printing just about anything is possible. If you are good enough, make and sell the others for a profit.
My friend works for a large industrial fabrication company here in Louisiana and you will be surprised at what the CNC machinists can make. He buys them a lunch now and then and has parts that are better than GM NOS.
PS: And they enjoy doing it for him when he shows them the pics of his car and their "special" parts. Amazing stuff they turn out. Company owner is fine with this as my friend is an old-time and great employee with a lot of special benefits.

EDIT: About 6 years ago, I helped a forum member create the oil shields for the A6 compressors for our C2 cars. He needed one for his car. When all was done, he had the one he needed plus the design for the future. He sold them here on the CF as well as thru Ecklers and a few other resto shops. I think they are still being made and sold. I have a few for myself that he gave me as "gifts". Something to think about.
