Found original paper tag on brake booster hose..
Remnants of build sheet tape on pass. side firewall..
Engine date stamp T1218 CTY with VIN..
5 blade fan with TW1 stamped on blade..how did Chevy know??
The fan has the 8 hole pattern...??? Allen? Sully??
Water pump appears to be original..early date B 26 9...
BB a/t rad intact..
Original L78 valve covers..they will be replated and installed on another member of the family..
Plenty of grease, antifreeze, dirt, and tranny fluid...

Lot's of fun..more to follow

Interesting date on that waterpump if it's the original..February 69.
I would imagine an #065?
Is the Radiator still holding the Prefix tag of ZE.
The Deepgroove Fan pulley should be part #3976060AP,and worth it's weight in gold.That #631AO is a NON Deepgroove 1971-74 base pulley.
Original engine..original driveline..deluxe interior..Original paint...Valve Covers w/drippers,..booster tag...5 bladed fan,etc.
I understand your day two obsession Tom,but I have to play Devils advocate here and ask,"What did this Time Capsule ever do to you?"
Go pick on a different one.
