Excellent 67 Survivor!

Just sold for $63K.

I thought that was really fair on both sides.
Not everyone goes in for Red on Red Or a low option Automatic But that car was amazing , and can even step up a little more to be ultra amazing. The amount and condition of untouched content was over the top |
Red on red in red. I like that....
|
Nice car! Also nice to see the Caution Fan decal in the right spot.

Hi guys I"m the new caretaker,if anyone here can lead me to a correct carb I think the car deserves it.Much appreciated.Thanks Joe

Welcome to PY and congrats on that bowl full of cherries.
I will send you a Private Message with a link to one. Be extremely cautious (aka do not reply) if you get any PM's from newly joined members offering parts. All the car forums have scammers now looking for parts wanted requests - to rip off. You will need to call these folks and verify what they have . Needs to have the dime size ID disc. The disc also has a date code. You want the date to be before the car was built. Ideally You can view a real 67 carb on the 67 Convertible auction currently on BaT. And some real expensive rebuilts on eBay 7027262 This new disc is dated K6 October 66 They sell these new discs for about $30-40 with various dates if you needed to change one to a better date. https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/s...Av3c4BNyANBydI |
carb
Thank you .I'll look for the pm.Iwill let you know how I make out,Again thnks
|
Just sent a few moments ago .
The discs are color-coded , and some are natural , by according dates and applications. So don't let a color variance be a detractor. Have seen silver gold red green and blue , so far. |
Your car was built 05E , May 5th week 1967
So you really want a carb tag with C7 D7 or E7 date range Good Luck for you and the car |

Not all assembly line 1967 Rochester Quadrajet came with the round aluminum disc.
Ive owned several 67 with the #7027262 stamped vertically on LH side of carb body as shown below on an Unrestored Survivor. |
WoW
Have never seen a 66 or 67 Qjet with stamped ID. Chevy and Olds used them in 66 Always the Disc. If I were buying one , it would have to be a Disc ID Thanks 60sstuff Looks like the repop discs might all be done in red now regardless of date or code. Did see a gold one offered , but it might have been an original. Round holes in the disc is all I can remember seeing before. |

That's an SR unit dated in late 1970 |
I think the 66 Pontiac Sprint 6 "might" have used a Qjet
But on the whole Pontiac didn't switch to them until 67 And of those "disc" era Qjets - only the 67 Pontiac V8 units had the strait fuel inlet. All others were side inlet. Some of the 67 full size 400 V8's still used an AFB The Qjet came with 670 head 400's and 428's |
Thanks you guys- for all the info,its very helpful as my strong points are Buick GS cars.I'm used to identifying carbs by the numbers stamped on the carb body.Will the steel shim plate be tough to source? guess I'll throw this out as well,does anyone have a correct dated voltage reg for this goat? My plan is to find a carb,regulator and a Gardner Exh.Thanks Joe

Great plan gsjo
Here are couple pics from an eBay 67 intake. The holes up front with a trough connecting them is a heat crossover that allows hot exhaust to circulate and warm the carb. Good cold weather feature - but bad for anything else. If the shimplate gets left out it warps the baseplate. Most guys today are drilling and tapping those holes and installing hex head pipe plugs. Intake would need to be off the car for safest removal of the metal shavings. I'm not sure if epoxies would endure the heat to plug the holes - but maybe there are products now. https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/TksAA...pg/s-l1600.png https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/yRYAA...rqN/s-l960.png |
Great '67! Good luck with getting all the needed bits.
Baron, Yes the 1966 OHC 6 SPRINT is the 1st Pontiac to utilize the Q-Jet. FWIW here is a '67 Carb Tag list I have on file; 1967 CARB TAG CHART; FEDERAL; 7027260 – YELLOW 7027261 – LIGHT GREEN 7027262 – BLUE 7027263 – GOLD 7027268 – RED 7027269 – BLACK 7027272 – DARK BLUE 7027273 – BLACK CALIFORNIA; 7037260 – RED 7037261 – BLACK 7037262 – MAROON 7037263 – ORANGE 7037268 – GREEN 7037269 – COPPER 7037271 – YELLOW 7037272 – DARK BLUE 7037273 – BLACK |
Great list on those color codes Jeff
I never took any time to try to relate the colors back in the 80's-90's when I was handling a fair amount of various 67 carbs. |

The stamped versions must be few and far between.
Or SR dated carbs. Only 2 on eBay are stamped One is a late 1971 dated SR 7037262 One is an obvious restamp for a 67 RamAir Firebird Numbered 7037276 without a date code or plant pick code. And its a Carter There is a Manual Sprint carb 7027269 with a Disc dated B7 Also found a couple with M 6 date codes. Meaning they most likely did skip " I " on the carb dates. I've been checking all 4 GM divisions |

Add to that, CALIFORNIA tags got a square center hole while FEDERAL tags got a round hole. |
Parts Place would do better to make those discs in natural finish , and probably round holes would cover more of the market correctly.
The square hole could be drilled round I suppose. Great info from you guys about the discs ! |

The original round disc on the '67 I sold last fall looked more red to me, but the chart called it orange. And by the looks of it when removed, I doubt that it ever had a can a carb cleaner touch it. Lol

heres pics of a couple discs
hole on one isnt round or square |
Another item that seems "odd" to me is the use of a fan shroud on a non A/C car. The fan shroud was used on all A/C cars and also part of the HD cooling option (though some documented 67 RA cars appear without the shroud). This car does not have A/C or the heavy duty cooling option. I assume it was possibly added to help with cooling.
|
I didn't even ever notice the shroud on the car.
Believe there was a dealer service part made for the shorter Non-AC radiator. And I think they reproduced it - or at least at some point - in the restoration parts catalogs. Also seems like its been said you can put an old factory Voltage Regulator outer cover onto a newer replacement part. I probably have an old regulator on a parts car if that is true. |

The Original owner of my 66 GTO added this shroud shortly after he bought the car. There is one on eBay now for $$$. Below is the one on my 66 along with the MPC information. |
Interesting. Learned something new. To be clear that shroud was not installed on the assembly line but was a dealer over the counter part?
|
From the best I have gathered , that is correct Mcronk.
But I wasn't even 4 years old yet when 67 production ended. So its been a perpetual learning experience |
My first recollection of a GTO was when I was about 13. A neighbor down the street was a salesman at the local Pontiac dealership and he drove one home. Best I recall it was a 67 GTO Signet Gold with a Black vinyl top. This would have been about 1970. As a kid I used to try and identify make and model of cars on the road back then.

This is the original Q-Jet that's on my '67 GTO, automatic A/C car, with the blue ID disc. The car was built in the 4th week of June 1967 at the Pontiac plant.
Yes, it's quite filthy. It was last rebuilt over 30 years ago, it's due. It still runs pretty well, but I'm sure it would be better with a rebuild. |

Firebirds had their own block/carb codes to themselves. Sprint 6 carbs are in that list too (Abody & Fbody codes) 49 State GTO and 428 cars used 7027262 Auto - all 7027263 Manual - all The colored tags were probably done to aid assembly line workers from mixing them all up. Each application got its own color. |
Thanks for that info. Its very helpful
