Default Re: GM rear gears

There was a type-o in my original post. The ring gear has 39 teeth on it. The ring gear reads:

2 GM 3936482 9-39 3 70 11

Sorry for the confusion.

Yes M, I knew the car. I work with a guy who worked with the previous owner. I actually am in Roslyn right now (with my parents), but I make settlement next month and will be moving 2 miles down the road in Glenside.

Finally, I'll be able to bring my 65 Malibu SS L79 car out of the storage it's been in for the last 7 years. I haven't seen it since high school! Yes, the new house has a garage, but not as big or nice as my fathers I'll be gettin married in October.

The B-M clone is being built by the younger of my two little sisters. The inspiration began when I she bought the frost green Ertil B-M model. She had just rencently purchased a very similar looking 69 Nova. After reading about these cars, she was hooked. The biggest snag was recreating/locating the hood, but thanks to Ed Cunneen that has been resolved.

Her goal is to try and make it appear as correct to the period. She'll want's to attempt to reproduce a window sticker and all that good stuff. Kinda try and recreate for folks the feeling of what it would be like to walk up to one of thses cars at the Baldwin dealership and dream.

My two sisters have a lot of fun at the shows, they dress up in 50's and 60's period clothes and really try and look the part. If anyone has been to either the Glenside or Hatboro PA shows in the past 3 years, they've probably seen them. Sorry for the ramblings guys.
