Part number 3851100 is the 1967 Corvette 427 front spring. It applies to all 427’s except “HD, sp. Perf. Susp” (F41).

That's from the GM parts book P&A 30B.

66 JK Steel wheels

Set of 4. 15 x 5 1/2 JK. Good condition. Have not been used since late 70s. $400. Prefer local sale (DFW area) to avoid shipping hassles.

Headlight motors

Does anyone have first hand experience using headlight motors overhauled by Bill Naeger? If so, How did it work out?

They look like they’re moving together because they are. A small amount of end play at the yoke (at the differential) is normal. I think it’s on the order of 0.030 to 0.040”. It doesn’t take much to...
