This one the guy managed to scratch the trim while trying to put the screw in and then gave up I guess. https://www.yenko.net/attachments/372734-Picture198.jpg

Now that is quality. Did you get a discount for the damage?

Interesting that this car has the 772 fan blade where my auto Z-28 LA built 03B car has the unmarked fan blade.

FYI, The above 5/8" x 1" oblong hole wheels were only made/used on Jan-early June 70 Z-28's, before changing to 13/16" x 1" holes on late June/July Z's, which stayed through the 1974 Model Year.

It wasnt until the reintroduction of Z-28 in 77' when the ROUND hole wheels came out.

Here's a link supporting Chuck's comment, to some research I did on the wheel hole size vs date "timeline" if anyone is interested.

The way that GM set the spped for the line to keep moving did not allow for anyone to dwell over a mistake, as the next car on the line was coming to get its part. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

Not true. Each area had a dedicated repairman. Anything that wasn't done right could just be tagged and he would fix it while the car was still in the area or more major items could be corrected in repair bays after the rolls test.
This was just someone not doing their job. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif


The 772 fan and the unstamped fan were functionally equivalent and were interchangeable. All depended on what was in stock in the plant.....

I believe someone said that Randy was in charge of the 70-73 Camaro Hi Performance Showcase. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

We'll get Tim to bring that old white Z he bought https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif. And HotrodPaul can meet him along the way with his Citrus 2nd gen collection.. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif
