Correct fuses
I looked in the NCRS 1970-1972 Corvette Judging manual.
Where can you get the original fuses:
10 amp has a red stripe inside the glass
25 amp has a white stripe inside the glass
Also, a 4-way flasher made by either of these 3 maunfacturors:
Ideal Corproation
Tung-Sol
Signal-Stat
I am begginning to think I am getting alil **** here...so humor me!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Junkyards are about the only source for correct color-coded fuses; the reproductions have the color on the outside, not the inside. While you're grabbing fuses, grab the turn signal flashers too.

I never thought of that....
But by now most of the "oldie" fuses I would want are gone.
Oh yeah, the flasher's a must take also! Ha ha...
I thought there would be some sort of aftermarket for this stuff.
Maybe not?
Somebody???

John,
Who sells the aftermarket fuses??
Color on the wrong side?
Do you mean on the color is on the outside instead of the inside?
Thanks, Dave

Plus you will find period correct trim screws, flashers, connectors for various electrical components, etc in your favorite salvage yard. Call ahead and make sure they have the right years of GM cars.

Did you find the flasher you were looking for?
After reading your post I checked my parts. I relocated and modernized my fuse panel and replaced my flashers with electro-mechanical units. This is what I found.
They are from a '74 Vette:
Emergency Flasher - Ideal - metal body - Excelent condition
Signal Flasher - Tung-Sol - Light blue plastic body - Excelent Condition
(1) 25 amp fuse w/white stripe (only one and it was in the wiper slot, go figure)
All worked when removed.
I didn't know you guys got giged for these things, glad I didn't toss them.
If you don't want them someone else might.
I also have the seatbelt interlock module if anyone needs a working one of those.

Flashers...YES!
David,
I sent a message to you, unsure if it made to you.
I paid 12 bucks for 20 fuses 10-10 amp & 10-25 amp.
I'll take both the flashers.
What are you asking for them?
Email me @ dterrana@aol.com

Dave,
I'm not looking to get rich off of a couple of old flashers. All I'll ask for them is reimbursement for mailing them to you.
If those terms are agreeable to you then send me your address and I'll get them to you as soon as possible.
David
I sent this to you in an E-mail
Well actually 2 E-mails I forgot to put Corvette forum in the header of the first one.
