The green wires above the heater box are for the amp gauge. Goes from the small wire off the positive post of the battery,thru the gauge and then to the power block behind the battery.

Just noticed the routing of the windshield washer hose and had the chuckle. Steve said it was like that when he had it. I’ll just leave it for conversation.

That actually is RPO HW01, super-duper rarer than hens teeth Hot Washer option!

And thank you for posting the console lid photo.

Here is the original spare out of the 25k mile Ss and the orig spare out of the 24k mile Z28. Same Argent silver.

Whelp at least that answers that. Thank you

One more question. Do you or Steve know if the heater hoses are originals? First time I've seen GM logo on both. Very cool car. You suck.

I think Steve put the top heater hose on 20 years ago.

I purchased the car from Bob Cobb in 1999. He purchased from original owner Gerald Nelson in 1981. I made contact with Jerry and agreed to bring the car to a show at the Monmouth County Fair he was hosting as the Parks Commissioner the same year.

I took this picture and had him explain the hideous hub caps. I have a wave file of him telling the story of the hub caps(can't seem to get it to play). The other picture is with the dog dish caps with Uniroyal Tiger Paws which is my favorite look for the car.... The last picture is circa 1980.
