If I remember correctly, the smog pump was dated St Patrick's day, 1967. The Black Plates are the ones put on the car in 1967. Tim really picked up where I left off. If the car has a smog pump, it will work properly on a car he owns. Me, well, I just pulled the belt and drove the car.

Tim's NEED to completely disassemble and clean/refresh every instrument panel that comes thru his shop makes ALL the difference in appearance of his cars. When he's done, it doesn't look dated or tired. It looks like it just came from the dealer. Absolutely incredible what he does to every Corvette he touches that very few others would even consider tackling. I would bet there are collectors who would be willing to have their cars, or at least an intact instrument panel, if they could figure out how to remove it, shipped to him just for this service...

We all know that Tim @ BMC will have that ‘67 Smog Pump functionality sound.

Me, back in the day (early 80’s) on one of my 1967 GTO’s with A.I.R I removed the internals (vanes, rotor, etc.) of the pump so I could leave the belt on to keep it esthetically correct.
I was cheating the atmosphere, sorry

My yellow '67 is a beautiful car in all ways aside from the gauge cluster. Someday I'll pull it (or try) to clean it up.

Cool car. Would look good with blue streaks to match the interior.

The refurbished radio came in yesterday, so I took the opportunity the change out the speaker as well. And then, I found this when I pulled the speaker down. I don't feel the speaker has been out of this car, so I am going to write this off to an assembly line worker who was either disgruntled, or had a warped sense of humor
