I may be wrong, but I think it was for a rear window defoger which was an option on some C3's.

I'm looking for a set of (real) vents that I want to put on each side of my high rise hood. (This is on the sides of the high part of the hood) After lengthy searches, all I can find are ones that are to wide, to cheezy or fake. I need 2 1/2"-3" wide by about 18"+/- long. Anybody out there have...

What a fantastic ride Cody, following along on your posts. I learned a lot and makes me want to finally do something with my other C3. The mods you came up with and the way you accomplished them were something to be very proud of. The effort, work and attention to detail was fantastic. Well done...

My 73 has the same 14" from front of hood to bracket....

I get 11" on my 73.

I use Castrol 40wt because of the high heat. (454)

Have a happy and safe Christmas Day everyone!

Nice Ghost. Hope everything goes well. I do envy you as once I completed mine I actually missed the build project.

Wow, that is scary! Good to know and will definitely monitor more closely. Plan on upgrading all my suspension bushings and shocks to see if I can get it to drive less like a tank. Will make sure I'm set to a zero camber. Tires are new.

Very fine metal particles from wear over the years can also turn the oil to a greyish color. Try a magnet on the old oil to see if there are any metal particles of concern.

While your in there, you should check the rubber boots that connect the vents to the outside to drain out water. They are most likely rotten and you will have water leaking to the inside. New ones available from many of the suppliers.

Can't offer any advice as I am also wanting to upgrade my seats to a more modern plush style with electric adjustments. Can be from any make or model. Hope to see any suggestions and recommendations that would satisfy the fitment concerns.

I've seen many a times were guy's have sold their Vette and then later regret or wish they still had it. Just say'n.

Always nice to see someone take the time to do a complete body off restoration than just try to cover it up. Will increase the value ten fold.

Good to know! Thanks T
