Tear down, clean and lube a 60's GM wiper motor yourself.

(Preview)
I'm looking for something to dig into right now. The wiper motor from my 65 works, but it certainly needs a spruce up on the grungy case and body, and probably some lubrication. So it'll make a good small project. It has an aftermarket washer pump setup, which I kind of like, so it might not even be origina...

1963-66 AM or FM antenna, a post for antenna info here.

(Preview)
Anyone here have a genuine Canadian Pontiac 1965 AM antenna for sale? One that would have been front fender mounted. There is a cheesy aftermarket antenna in place on my 65, and obviously the hole was drilled, and it was added later as the car came with a radio delete plate. So it's all garbage. I'm not up...

Emblem Placement Dimensions
(Preview)
There was a thread with discussion on where to locate emblems on a particular vehicle. Todd has suggested that there be a section in each of the separate forums for particular models, so I will start one in each of those sections. If you are able to assist with specs on body emblem placement for the model...

Tour of a long-forgotten salvage yard
(Preview)
Hi guys, There is this old salvage yard near London, Ontario that I have driven by many times. Lately, I've seen that some of the old cars are being dragged up to the front, near the road and have been for sale for parts. So, I called and asked to tour the yard for 60's Pontiacs. There were lots of old cars, bu...

Is there supposed to be drain holes under the rear window?
(Preview)
Hey there, i'm cleaning the roof here. Removed the rear window I can't see any manufacturer designed drain holes around the window, only the holes made by rust:) Is that normal or water should go down somehow to avoid accumulating moisture in cavities?

Factory undercoating?
(Preview)
Has anyone found a product that we can buy which duplicates that nasty thick bumpy tough undercoating that came on our mid 60's cars on the underside of the floor and the rear wheel wells?

Does anyone have one of these on their 65 or 66?
(Preview)
I'm thinking the majority of you won't know what it is, or even if you guess right, you've likely never seen it on a 65 or 66.

Electric power trunk, 66 Pontiac?
(Preview)
Has anyone installed any kind of electric power trunk release in a 66 full size? Originally they were vacuum but those are next to impossible to find (or not affordable when they are for sale) so I'd like to see if I can find an electric option.

1966 Power vent window testing

As with my other thread about power locks, I also plan to install power vent windows in my 66 Grande Parisienne that I bought from Ken this year. I got the motor/gearbox assemblies from a member here from Oakville Ontario. Many of you know him. He owns a 65 Laurentian 2 door post recently purchased from...

1966 Power lock testing
(Preview)
Years ago I installed power locks from a later model (70's - 80's) GM on the black 66 Grande Parisienne that Tom from Edmonton now has. I plan to do that again on the 66 I have now, so recently it was testing time just to make sure it all works. When I bought this car from Ken he included the matching switches f...

1969 B-body Engine Size Emblem Location

So, the emblem on my 2+2 had the studs removed and was attached with emblem tape. I removed both of them and polished and painted them. Now I need to attach them in the correct position (previously, they were just centered in the fender). If somebody could give me the "A" and "B" measurements, I would app...

Windshield wiper motor
(Preview)
Bit of a long shot but worth a try I am having trouble with my wiper motor not returning to home lock up and stop working. From what I have been able to find the potential issue may be this magnetic relay internal to the wiper motor. Near as I can tell the part number is 4919641 Delco part #. I can find these on...

How to take out the antenna from the front fender?
(Preview)
Hey there, I'm looking for advice how to take off the antenna. I hope it's not necessary to take the whole fender off:) Also on that note - has anyone found a decent radio replacement with modern features but native look? Thanks in advance.

66 Pontiac heater box vs 66 Beaumont heater box
(Preview)
I learned something new yesterday while stripping my 66 Custom Sport parts car. Good old GM. I've always said when working our 60's Canadian Pontiacs, Beaumonts and Acadians, no car manufacturer ever did a better job with making the same parts fit multiple models. Even though I've been doing this o...

Polish windshield scratches
(Preview)
My recent purchase to part out has an undamaged tinted windshield other than it has some wiper scratches. Has anyone ever tried the kits to polish out the scratches? I'm curious to try one but I don't want to bother wasting $35 if they don't work.
