Thanks for all the compliments. Means a lot to me, coming from you guys. I am finishing up the air cleaner cover today, then on to the charcol cannister.

Thanks for posting that picture. Do you know if the clamp on the alternator bracket that is holding the hoses is original? The assm manual doesn't show one, and I haven't been able to find one listed in the repro books. Thanks again.

Tony,
The heater hose bracket on the alternator is available through GM. I don't have the part number available at the moment. Classic Industries sells their version of the clamp as well.

The GM hose bracket has a hole in the bottom of it. I am no 70' expert at all, but the 69' cars did not have the hole. The newest repo bracket is now sold without the hole. BTW, the car looks great...BKH

I found a hose bracket with the hole in it. I bead blasted it, painted it and installed it. The car is back on the ground and it moves under its own power again! I will send Dan some more pictures tonight. Thanks again Dan for posting them.
