Question 67 Firebird Restoration

Thanks for that Birdguy the pic of the passenger side had me standing on my head wondering what angle it had been taken from until I noticed the banana shaped bracket for the glove box. The hole for the srew on the passenger side looks on the large size do I use a speed clip here. Dug out the original wiring harness (Ive thrown nothing away as yet ) lost a few bits mind you. Checked out the passenger side courtesy light wres & it looks that even on the original there was a wire spliced in for the door jamb switch so I guess this was missed out by manufacturers M & H Electrical in fact the wires from the drivers side to the passenger side that goes across the firewall dont even have any harness tape covering them so I ll have to do the job properly & splice in the missing wire and tape them. Can anybody out there tell me was the trunk painted with spater paint before the cocktail shakers and the cover for the fuel pipe or after Ive seen pictures with them painted & not Painted which is correct

I may have been standing on my head when the picture was taken! Here are a couple more to help you out. The diagram only shows the passenger side light assembly, but I would bet that the driver side is the same. The trunk photo shows the coctail shakers removed, but they did have splatter paint on them originally.

Some aftermaket replacement wire sets may not be 100% correct, so wiring diagrams are essential. I have more under-dash photos of everything before I even touched anything, so if you need more just holler mate.

Welcome to the board Dave. I have a restoration shop in ohio and just picked up a 67 400 4spd convertible for a customer and are getting ready to start tearing it apart on monday. It is somewhat original and unmolested, so maybe we can work together cause this is my first complete resto of a bird, although i've owned several, i've never done a full resto, i mostly do gto's. We will document the teardown process, so if you need some pics, let me know, i'll try to get them and maybe i can pic your brain on some of it too. I'll see if i can keep up with you in the process, although we are scheduling to be done by june 2010, so in a few months, we'll see if you can keep up. I would add a smiley face to the end of this, but i dont know how.
