So every month I'd inventory and prepare those parts to be returned to GM, which included making opened packages look like they hadn't been opened. We had all kinds of tricks, including the spray paint that looked like cardboard, finding parts in inventory with similar boxes and swapping labels and contents, restapling through original staple holes, etc.

So, never say "never opened"

I'm shocked that GM would misrepresent NOS products
like this. I'm so shocked that I'm not buying NOS parts
anymore

Now, now Steve, no need to get upset. They may have been repackaged parts, but they were still new

I never could leave a sleeping dog alone. I have to kick him to see if he was really asleep. O.K. boys & girls here are pictures of Annie Hartwig's 68 Gibb nova the same car I used to own. The oil pan is adouble humped and factory welded pan which does fit nova's period. This pan was put on the car in 1968 and is STILL on the car. Any Questions!!!

Kim!

This flies in the face of everything I've been told about
BBC oil pans in the '69-ish subframe. Now you got me
thinking and I need to check into this a little more......

Kim,

What kind of clearance issues exist with the use of the
"double hump" oil pan? Was it modified in any way to clear
the steering linkage?

Steve
