Carb spacer goes to gdh.

This is the last item for tonight and it's for about half of this board who is looking to hop up an engine. I don't know how many times I have seen.... "Can someone run a Desktop Dyno on this setup?"

Item #4: Desktop Dyno 2000(Box, CD & Instructions) - Used(Claimed by pillowmeto) No longer available

O.K. I'm in:

I'll throw in my slightly used copy of "Corvette Weekend Projects - Maintenance and Repair How-Tos for 1968-1982 Corvettes" by John Pfanstiehl. Great book for basic repairs or Vette newbies.

Who wants it?

Matt,

The Desktop Dyno is yours.

Header wrap is now gone.

And thanks to Budman78 & NOTHIN'LIKE'A'69 for offering to join in. I've got a couple of nice things that I will add tomorrow and a few nik-naks to those who are just looking for missing parts to C-3's.

Header wrap goes to Shrike.

As an end to the night. Is anyone missing some emblems on their C-3? All were taken off my '71 and need repainting. All tabs are intact and they are in good shape. Offered are:

Item #5
1) Front Cross Flags
2) Gas Cover Cross Flags
3) 2 Sets - 4-5-4 Hood

(Emblems claimed by NHvette) No longer available

I bit straying from the spirit of this topic, but if anybody has any pics of their fibreglass spring wrapped, I'd sure like to see it. I recently installed my "mono" and am worried/thinking I should wrap it.
Thanks!

Ooh !!!! I could use the emblems ... that is if you don't mind seeing them
later on the nose/gas cover of my 75/70 hybrid.

I don't NEED the 454 emblems, although I would like to step up to a 454
in a year or two.


Lemme know ... I'll be in the garage looking for some goodies to offer up, too.

I know I have some 68 side markers that I bought by mistake ... and maybe a tail lens or two.

Thanks,

-Dave :seeya

What a great idea!!!

Being new at this (Only being an owner for two months), I don't have a ton of parts, but I did replace the shocks right after I bought the car. They didn't help, so I'm putting one of the street/slalom kits on this weekend. I won't need the shocks I bought, so if anybody needs a set of shocks with maybe 500 miles on them, I'll be glad to send them. They're just Monroe replacements, but they ARE almost new. Otherwise, they'll sit in my garage for approximately three decades and I'll finally just throw them away.

Gone to docmow...Merry Christmas, y'all!!!
