My somebody-else's-project '76 has a fully restored frame, but it is decidedly NOT stock.
Judging by decals and some pictures available online of out-of-stock kits, I believe that I've got a VB&P Performance Plus suspension kit with Van Steel trailing arms, and an unidentified rack and pinion steering conversion. VB&P seems to be out of business, so I have no information about adjustments. I'd also like to make sure everything is torqued to spec before putting the body back on. Anybody have a source of data on these systems, or perhaps a digital copy of the literature to share?
Here's some pics of the unidentified steering components:
The pinion assembly appears to have a GM part number on the casting. Whoever made the chassis brackets appears to have done a very nice job, and should put their mark on their products!
I looked through my documentation and all I had was the DVD full of their videos and no paper instructions anywhere. It looks like every video that was on the DVD is now on YouTube.
if I find any paper instructions, I’ll scan them to PDF and send them to you.
