Never saw an NOS one. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif You can clean an original up pretty nice with some WD-40 if it is not scratched up much. I think there are a couple cars you can use the gutter from and not just the nova. Just measure yours an look on Ebay or steal one from Schoney. He has a few to choose from! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif

Sam, I just put a repro on a car and it looks very nice...didn't compare it to the original for exact detail...but I wasn't doing a Deuce https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif A used original from a junk yard or survivor is a possibility. They tend to dry out from engine heat and then crack/break near the screw holes. I think a mint original could be restored with a good clean up and then some vinyl paint like Fusion black. I'll look around and see if I can find anything for you...

Sam,
The wiring gutter for a 70 has holes for the TCS switch. 70 Impalas etc... use the same gutter. I do not have a nice 70 on hand. I do have a very nice used 69 if you want to drill it yourself. Earl

I think I have one with a TCS switch still mounted to it. I will have to check.

Thanks for all the responses. Mine is scratched and split and imo will not be restorable. yes 70 novas have 2 holes for TCS but these could be easily drilled from a gutter w/o holes (in fact mine has two, what appears to be factory, sets of drilled holes on each end - very clean/symmetrical). Let me know what you all find.

Big thanks goes out to Woj (Phil W.). He sent out a beautiful original gutter that just looks great.

Thank you for your kindness Woj! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Good going Sam. Mambers helping members. How about some new pictures? Sammy. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Here you go Sam...

Here is Woj's provided '69 gutter next to my original one. I'll punch the correct holes into it and install the fuse when my rivets come in. Next two photos are of the newly plated cases for the TCS fuse and the Voltage Regulator cases.
