FREAKING awesome score on the MINT born with components for the car... that is great! Jon Mello had the original sections from his survivor 67 Z28 with the manifolds as well. If you use an inside collar you can tig the pipe back together easily, if you still have the remainder.

This thread just keeps getting even better, big congrats on finding your Dad's stash!
As much as all the parts are valuable, somehow those head pipes your own pop cut off seem just priceless!

Darrel, if you still need the flywheel inspection plate bolt I believe I have an original for you but would like to confirm the head marking. Let me know.

I prefer retractions of retractions to holding off posting great muscle car pictures and info!!!

Enjoy the project!

By the way, no need to do retractions in the future, just put the word &quot;allegedly&quot; in front of all your postings. (my official lawyerly advice) [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Did it originally have the big smear print? Reminds me of when I hired my 10 and 5 year old to do the paint daubs on my suspension. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: cook_dw</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Ok here is a closeup of the bolt. Circles with a L. Crossing fingers...



</div></div>

Of the many dozens in my inventory this is the ONLY one that had the &quot;L&quot; with the circles around it though there seems to be many more circle than yours has. If it meets with your approval PM me your address and I will put it in the mail tomorrow.
