On second thought ...
there is a catch to the steering column being color-keyed . Since it didn't originally come with Formula Steering Wheel - it would have had a color keyed custom steering wheel - and matching color keyed column. that fits |

Your PM said your car came with a Freedom Battery? We have put a lot into the cap kits I make, including days of sifting through commercials and info on these battery's, even GM Heritage center doesn't have a lot of info, I'd like to see where it said on the build sheet, I'd definitely wouldn't be a Freedom II, they started in 79 or 80. The Fredom warranty cards I found had a date code of 1976 on them, very interesting info here. I've only found 3 warranty cards in all my searching. PS, I sent you a PM.

The car has a $26 charge in the window sticker for the "Delco X Maintenance Free" battery. The original owner remembered it being a Delco Freedom battery. Do you know when the Freedom came into production, given that the Freedom II was late 1970's?

My original warranty brochure for the car lists just the standard Delco Enegergizer warranty information but doesn't mention anything about the optional maintenance free battery warranty.

If you go back to the first page of this thread you can see the window sticker - it's the 20th option on the first page of the sticker, right after Honeycomb wheels.
Here's the original order sheet. Maintenance Free Battery - Option TP1 in box 48. It's different than the UA1 HD Battery option below it.

I haven't really done anything to the SD since I got back from MCACN. I've been working on the truck and getting that all set. Truck is all done now and running nicely.
Back to the Firebird. I need to get rid of four worm-style, fuel hose clamps that were put on the lines to the fuel pump, by the second owner. I need two original red and two green spring-style hose clamps. Anybody have any spares in their tool box? |

Just checked my hardware box. I have one red one. Kinda small. Looks to be about 7/16" diameter. Yours if you need it.

Yup I could use it, that's the smaller of the two sizes I need.

You know me, I'd rather have original rather than repro. The modern clamps have rounded edges on the tabs whereas the originals have sharp, squared off tabs, the better to slice your wrists on when working around them. :-p

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.
