Default Re: 1969 Camaro Fuel Line Clips

Hello Sal,

Those are from AMK. So not a good source as original. I did have a few misc clips I tried to clean up today. Two 3/16 gold which are 3953272 clips. Some blue 5/16 and a few that I could not see the color. Put them in rust remover and unlike paint (which the remover leaves untouched) it removed the dye. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/mad.gif[/img]

There was one 3/3 # 4 which is a mis stamp 3/8 that is distinctly silver (galvanized crystal pastern) looking plating. The lettering is different than the pic above. This one confirms what several GM parts books call the 3/8&quot; clips: Zinc or Natural. Not saying that there was not a 3/8 style that came blue, just going by what I observe.

The 5/16 did come in blue and green. Different spec to the clips.

Greg
