No tank sticker. I believe the tank has been off before.

M21 Trans. Someone drilled and tapped it for a drain plug. It is the original, and has the partial vin stamped in it. Assembled early Feb.

I am still certain it is an LT-1. Has the cable for the tach. Found the three holes in the front of the driver's side inner fender for the TI box. Two of the bolts are still in there. TI harness is still present with no wires cut. That together with the partial vin on the engine block, with a correctly dated CTU stamp, and the other clues leaves no doubt in my mind.

Got the calipers pulled. I don't think they are originals. Casting numbers all start with 547, which indicates 73-82 calipers, I believe. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Pretty crusty under there, so it is a good thing I got the extra chassis with it. There is even some rust in the left trailing arm. Right one looks fine. But, the spare chassis it pretty close to pristine.

Have not checked out the rear gear yet, other than to confirm that it is a posi.


I will post pics of all the numbers after I get this computer fixed. I can't even open and edit pics right now, let alone post them. These things are so frustrating when they don't work right.

OH, and sure enough it does have the original spare. Goodyear F 70 15. Speedway Wide Tread, but white stripe instead of white letter. I think that is correct. Even has the original valve stem cap; not a dill, but the one with the flutes that curve up onto the top. Like the one on top in reply #2 on this thread: http://www.camaros.org/forum/index.php?topic=107.0
