Most GM car have no converter drain plug. I performed this procedure on my mothers 89 Cavalier w/ a pan removal w/ new filter. When I got mom her last car, (a low mileage Chevy Malibu), I performed the same maintenance procedure. Both transmissions length of service was extended to +130,000 miles.

The car is owned by @ayilar who I did inform. No action was taken due to the length of time it sat there.

I suspect it was from an external source,( other vehicles, maintenance on sight equipment, outside contaminants transfer), as puddling in the surface in select areas was present. Water run off is anything but purposely designed in some of these structures As stated some rear areas the etching...

Here are the finished photos. Some etching went clear through to the primer, thus limiting how much I could do. In some rear panels I limited the amount removed.

Some additional photos of Poppy. There was damage to the paint from being parked at Indpls. International Airport. What ever leaked through the concrete structure etched water like stain marks as appears in the photos. Due to the thin measurement of the paint in several spots, complete removal...

As @ayilar has stated I have a very good knowledge of 69-73 heater box repair and trouble shooting. If you have a problem PM me and I'll help you find a solution.

From my door step to the show was 961 miles. Made real good time ontill I was about 10 miles south of I10. A combination of 1 burning semi trailer, 1 accident scene, and a disabled car my time was a little over 17 hrs. Two gas stops were required.

Yes I was there both Saturday and Sunday. Saturday was participant judging. Sunday was judging was by points which was better. The amount of attention generated was enormous. Saturday I had a more than a steady stream of admires. The same in a fewer number Sunday. Top the weekend off w/ a first...

I agree w/ @fury fan @sixpkrt @carguy300 @3175375 @Samplingman @71Polara383 this car is an excellent example of if you are willing to do the work, you can restore cars to factory new. Would love to here the backstory on this premo example. @John Kelly and @ayilar take note, another owner...

I will be bringing my Hurst 300 down, look forward to seeing you there.

I will also and w/ the mileage indicated a camshaft change may be in order. Scuffed lifter rollers = cam lobe damage.

You will need a good donner car to repair this. Premo fab skills need here otherwise. If sub structure rust is found the donner car can supply those parts.

Congrats Dave, well deserved. One of the best represented wagons Lou has featured. I agree w/ @Samplingman getting @ayilar in front of the camera w/ one of his Polara's would be a stand alone feature by itself. Michel's knowledge on the last of the convertibles would make for interesting...

Definitely got it.

If you can photograph the clips in the bag of clips you have. Posted here on this thread. And I will see if I can help you identify them. The rocker molding clips are very distinctive.

The old material was fiberglass fire retardant material. The new hood insulation material is made of more fire retardant than OEM. The best fitting is of the molded variety which yields a superior fit. A photo would be a huge aid in getting a good fitting hood pad. As @ayilar stated maybe...

I am in search of a 8 3/4 489 carrier w/ 2.76 ratio. It can be sure grip or open drive.

I took these two photos at the Studebaker main house and carriage house entry on the grounds of the Studebaker Museum in Southbend In. a few weeks ago.

That is the support bracket that goes under the rear interior panels for 1969 and 1970 300 convertibles. The snap as shown in post #2 screws down through that bracket. Care should be taken check for enlarged holes in the brackets from oversized screws, a common problem. A simple fix is to hammer...

This group of photos was taken in the basement of the museum. Note the two Avanti pre-production body shells.The chassic is from a 30's Studebaker wagon. Note the suspension engineering
