Dan,

Your work is phenomenal and the pictures ain't bad either https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif Now I will have to go crawl under my car and see if it has those big washers on the engine frame mounts https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/ooo.gif

John,

Having you attend the show will make it yet another one of the best weekends of all time. Everyone will be in awe of your one of a kind 1969 Lemans Blue L78, M22, 410, Convertable Chevelle. It`s one of my personal favorites.

Kim...Perhaps you can also make the trip and will be traveling with Johnny.

You don't really think I have sophisticated equipment like that, do you? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

I can see the upper two on the drivers side and two uppers, one lower on the passenger side.... and no large washers anywhere https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Re: 1969 Monaco Orange L78 300 Deluxe Post Sedan Resto
 

I've never seen them use washers there either.

Re: 1969 Monaco Orange L78 300 Deluxe Post Sedan Resto
 

Mine has washers under the bolt heads, but they are small in diameter....probably either lock washers or SAE.

Re: 1969 Monaco Orange L78 300 Deluxe Post Sedan Resto
 

Bill I know that your car is a true survivor....and I would never dispute that....however I have seen this mounting hardware installed both ways....bolts facing up and bolts facing down. My guess is assembly line legitment human error...heck I even find myself guessing as to wich way they go...let alone if they should have a larger washer. I`ve only re-constructed the car as per the 1969 Chevelle Chassis Assembly Manual.

Re: 1969 Monaco Orange L78 300 Deluxe Post Sedan Resto
 

Dan,

In no way was I implying that using larger washers is 'incorrect'.....just saying that my car is no help in confirming what's shown in the assembly manual. I suspect that it would not be unusual to find things as relatively inconsequential as a washer substituted or even left off here and there on some cars.
