Looking for some help on this, I noticed in a vintage pictures of my car, a Chevy bowtie in the corner of the windshield. Do any of the GM folks on the forum recognize this decal? I asked the OO and he thinks its a parking pass for the GM Tech Center but can't recall.

Looks similar to a parking pass on my old L72 Biscayne (see picture). IIRC the first owner worked at the Flint engine plant.

Tony, many thanks! Since Ned worked at the Tech Center and the Flint Engine Plant, it's likely the same/similar decal. Again, much appreciated!

It’s coming along nicely, Tim. Just finishing up on the wiring and will then dress the engine compartment. Just got a call from my stainless/chrome guy and my plating is done….need to pick it up and (ugh) pay. I’m terrible at documenting the progress and posting pics. I’ve been taking short videos and sending to the original owner.

On a separate note, I’m thankful this project came with three tubs of NOS fasteners. I didn’t realize how hard it is to find some of these like speedometer cable clips as an example.

Looking for some ideas on my fan shroud. No damage other than scratches. Has anyone had any luck with reconditioning these?

Proving Ground test cars had similar Bowtie decals.
