the owner has us doing another car that is top priority. At this time the body is out for blasting, all hardware has been boxed for plating. Thats about where it stands at this time. Shoot me an email on what you wanted to see/know on those brake lines again.

I just wanted to verify that they were the original style, without the sleeve in the center. It seems most aftermarket vendors are selling the 69 style as correct for 70.

i always have said, never go by books with aftermarket stuff. 75% of the time they are incorrect

Some of the plant and production time frame stuff is cool.
I can relate to some of the things discussed with my 70 RA III Formula from Van Nuys that might contribute to anyone keeping records. In regards to the ground straps/wires, mine has both the integrated ground strap in the harness as well as the added copper ground strap to the passenger side head. As far as decals, for sure mine has the engine decal on the driver side close to center towards hood latch, and the evap emissions decal is on the passenger side but also close to center towards the passenger side of hood latch. The coolant decal is passenger side closer to the radiator cap. The floor plugs were mentioned, and the rear round plugs being deleted mid May. I'm not sure if an exact time line has been nailed down, but mine is a May build, 4th week I believe (have to double check that) (Edit: checked it and it is in fact 05D) and it still has the rear round floor plugs. So I'm not convinced the mid May deletion of these plugs is accurate, at least on a Van Nuys car anyway. Edit: The OP was asking about a screw that is in the firewall doing nothing, right above the added copper ground wire on the passenger side. Wondering why it was there or if someone inadvertently put it there. I didn't see anyone answer this so I had to go look at mine and sure enough, my VN 05D Formula has that same screw in the firewall, doing nothing. So if it was a mistake, we can now say there are 2 Van Nuys cars with it. Last edited by Formulajones; 04-16-2017 at 07:44 PM. |
