I am restoring a 67 RS/SS L78, so I am well acquainted with the cost of restoration. When I say restoration I mean down to every last nut, bolt and split pin. To compound this cost I have to contend with international exchange rates and freight charges and then local tax. This means multiplying the cost of parts by 2 (at least). I can therefore definitely say that it is a labor of love......and frustration.
By the way does anybody know where I can get a OL code 4 core Harrison manual radiator.....apart from Heartbeat City Camaro?

Gavin, what is the build date of your car? Jeff

Hi Jeff, Build date is May 67. Just to save you deciphering the id plate. Its Capri Cream, 4 spd, bench seat, 4.56/1 (factory option ordered not dealer offered , as you will know) rear end and California built. It has had 3 owners not including me and has been off the road since 1970. I am at the stage of putting the drive train back together. I have the original diff and a correct date coded gear box....motor long gone using a CE 427 69....The radiator is holding me up. I plan to change the rear end ratio to 3.7/1.
