1964 INSPECTORS GUIDE
 
1 Attachment(s)
Any interest for a copy of the 1964 fullsize pontiac guide book. getting a cost in a few days. Have no idea where i got this one but nobody sells them or heard of one. Also can the hobby use more wheel studs for the 8 lug drums.I received only one request since sept.and that was Jeff Miller from Roush racing. would need to order 2000 for a good price. thanks let me know. John

John - I would probably be interested in one -

(PS - I would not recommend that you put that '64 wood wheel in the wash machine. They tend to shrink during the spin cycle).

I would buy a reprint.

fullsize 64 12-09-2011 12:47 PM

I'll like to have a copy. I'll take 32 studs and 12 oil filter labels. Let me know the cost Thanks John..

8LUG 12-10-2011 09:48 AM

Andre, I have the pf-7 oil filter labels set aside for you, still waiting for a cost on printing the inspectors guide. Thank you! John

64 Bonnie Ragtop 12-10-2011 10:37 AM

John,

Forgive my ignorance but what exactly does the inspector's guide contain?

Thanks.

Vince

8LUG 12-10-2011 06:38 PM

Vince,facts and part numbers that where on the assembly line, measurements of frames, crayon color markings on the frames. Some items like the radiators had a production line number different from the parts book. correct markings on the drive shaft . part numbers for springs and shocks on different optioned cars etc. John

64 Bonnie Ragtop 12-11-2011 05:48 PM

Thanks forthe explanation, John.

stevep 12-11-2011 07:17 PM

John, I would be interested in a reprint.

Ziggy 12-11-2011 08:37 PM

John:

I would be interested in a reprint or a copy as well.

1964 Inspectors guide
 
$70.00 set up charge for the 1964 inspectors guide and a $7.50 cost per book. min of 20, about 14.50 ea not counting shipping/tax, with weak interest not worth going forward. Same said for the 8lug wheels studs. John

stevep 01-06-2012 02:51 PM

Count me in for 1..if you do go forward.

justaguy 01-07-2012 03:33 PM

Id be interested in one too if you do move forward with it

Ragtop Man 01-09-2012 02:25 PM

8-LUG have you thought about asking the hosts if they would buy a few cases? Bet they would sponsor an order of 25, and the printer might have a few extras... just a thought.

Ziggy 01-13-2012 05:24 PM

Count me as well...whether you reprint or just copy... I'm in.

PF-7 filter labels...pm me how much..the 8-lug studs - are the RH or LH and how much? Include that in your pm.

johnta1 01-13-2012 07:53 PM

I would be interested in a copy also.

You might get ahold of 1973Formula on PY.
He could make a PDF copy of it, probably.

:)

Engine-Ear 01-14-2012 10:31 AM

John, sell them for $20 each, shipped. Maybe a price break if people order more than one?

At that price, add me in for two copies of the inspector's guide.

johnta1 02-11-2012 07:53 PM

Thanks, John!

That is a very cool booklet.

:)

BigAquaBonney 02-11-2012 11:36 PM

I'd take a book.

Anyone know which wheel stud I could get that is about 1/4" longer than the factory stud on a stock 5-lug rear axle?

4bl389 02-12-2012 09:14 AM

Im in if you go with it

stevep 02-12-2012 01:27 PM

Thanks again!!

I can't help wondering why our host plus Ames etc are not stocking the wheel studs?

With all due respect to you John, I would not know that you are an option to source them? I would be looking on the PY website first, then Ames then starting to worry where I can find them if they don't stock them.

Even if they don't actually stock them but they had them listed as a part, surely they could buy them in as required? I think you call that "drop shipping?"

I think there must be a lot of parts available from sources such as you but the general enthusiast has no idea how or where to source them whereas a central source such as PY can easily arrange it simply by having them on their website.

JMHO

8LUG, received my copy today - thanks. Looks like a real helpful addition to my library.

...Did I read that stevep thought the print was too small?? Hey, grand-dad: Walgreen's has 100 pairs of readers at $3.99 a pair; I even saw one pair with the Polish flag on the arms, so you'll look even smarter when you wear them!

stevep 02-13-2012 09:46 PM

HA HA HA

You are still a piece of Polish work!!!!

Don't mean to steer the thread off topic, but I am proud to announce that I have been promoted to a different 4-letter word! :D ;)

stevep 02-13-2012 10:21 PM

And you deserve the promotion too!!!

Ziggy 02-14-2012 02:27 AM

And, then some!

PS - Thanks John. Got the guide today....Steve, maybe there was an "easy reader" version for guys like us on the assembly line. No wonder, each car was "special".

johnta1 02-14-2012 10:34 AM

John, thanks again.

Would you have any other years of the Guides?

:)

8LUG 02-14-2012 12:03 PM

John, no i dont, and never remembered where i got the full size 64, 15 or so years ago.some numbers of parts on the production line are not in the parts book, which makes it a real nice guide to have. Thanks again John Misny

BigAquaBonney 02-22-2012 07:06 PM

Got mine. This is a USEFUL booklet with a wealth of information. Thanks, John. Don't have a '63, too, do you?

8LUG 02-22-2012 07:09 PM

Wish I did,Mike

stevep 02-22-2012 09:54 PM

I bought 2 1966 Inspector's guides from Ebay and got 2 Accessorizers! I am waiting for a return email from them.

fullsize 64 02-24-2012 01:04 PM

I received mine the other day. Excellent book and well worth it!!! We are all lucky to have a person like you in the hobby. Thanks John.

OHWELL THAT DIDNT WORK

johnta1 03-02-2012 12:02 PM

Yep, can't use the url in the online PY catalog.

Do a search: RPL82 - 65 GTO/Tempest/Lemans Inspectors Guide
(or on the RPL83 66 guide)

Steve ....did you get this straightened out with the seller? Was the item you bought the same item and seller as at this link:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/190479893905...9#ht_500wt_668

After I put in a complaint to Ebay, they sent them right out and Ian in Australia already has the one that I sent him.

BTW, they are fine!

Ragtop Man 03-07-2012 04:18 PM

Same thing happened to me, I just contacted them thru the auction page that I was SUPPOSED to get, and they sent a new one right away. They were also going to send return postage for the wrong one, but by the time they did it would cost more than the book, so they said "keep it for your inconvenience." Now if I could just get them to do that with a full set of stainless brake and fuel lines...;););););)

stevep 03-07-2012 06:44 PM

They didn't respond until I complained to Ebay. I called Inline Tube and they said that it was not them and they could not help.

I now have to buy the 65 guide from PY.
