They loan out the lock plate removers at most chain parts stores for a deposit. Word of advice though, be careful working around that cancel cam. They love to break during removal and installation.

I didn't realize they went to steal. That does appear to be the size they used in the later 78-81 Birds when they redesigned the dash for the bigger radio opening.

I don't know what the function of the part was, but if I were to guess I'd think it was for vapor lock. It isn't an SD only item or 4sp Item. It's rather on cars before a certain VIN number. ...

I'll throw in my 2 cents on that wheel. I'd guess it's no earlier than a '75. I don't see any of the scalloping on the reverse side. It's a very nice wheel.

I thought I read somewhere that the handles were supposed to be at the 9 O'Clock position (pass side) 3 O'Clock (drv side) when the window was closed. Where it stopped when open was based on that.

Thank you for the reply, OldSDGuy. The '73s were actually a little different from what I've been able to tell. It looks like '73s got 5 clips total.

That's a nice engine bay!

I run 255/60/15s on all 4 corners of my '73. On rare lock-to-lock occasions I'll get a slight rub. They're on the factory rally 15x7s.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
