ooops...
only post one at a time.
This one for the experts....need to find the missing parts for the wiper door control that goes here. Got two female harness ends(2 prong and 3 prong). Not any good views in my'68 AIM.

You are missing the wiper door control switch that operates the wiper door arm. I may have one. I can check my shelves and send you a PM if I have what you need. This part is a one piece part. I had a OEM one and a reproduction one. I will get back to you tomorrow.

OK...see if Marilyn finally shows up...
Got her last year.
Only one repaint as far as I know.
Pretty much untouched.
Checked all numbers...seem to be correct.
I know radiator not correct...need some fuel line work...oil cap not right.
But as far back as I could check don't think she's ever seen rain.
Questions now are.....
Since she is so stock...how many repairs do I want to make?
I'd like to replace rockers...one has a crack.
Little things like that.
Anyway...glad I can finally share with you all.

Does anyone know where I can get the LeMans style fuel caps? I knew of a site a year ago but it doesn't appear that they sell them anymore..

Hi
My 2 68th.
Red one is very early, build Oct 67 & white one is later 68, build March 68.
Red has a L71 and white a L36.
White one is sold by now.
White one is a automatic
red one was a 4 speed, now has a GM T56 Viper 6 speed tranny.
And of course a tripower
