AIR pump – can I borrow/buy

<< < (5/7) > >>

Stingraynut:
Thanks for all your input AusRs, it was worth looking at and your viewpoint of “IT IS POSSIBLE’ can often make things happen.

So why are Camaro’s called ‘F’ bodies – they’re not ‘F’ibreglass ,…so ?

I’m on a big learning curve… I only found out IROC stood for International Race of Champions last week – for the last 4 years I thought it meant ugly headlight arrangement on an otherwise good looking car.

I’ve been so focussed on having a vette that no other car has been at all interesting (since about 1997). I joined the ‘American Car Club of Cairns’ and now, having achieved my ambition, I’m free to begin to appreciate other cars again. I’ve always loved big cars and the Camaro with the targa roof, rear seats etc is my second favourite.

Ausrs:
vette would be my next choice IF i wanted a 2 seater ...becoming a grandfather this year (later ) it will be nice to cart grandchild around in style :)
as for the f body it is the term given to the camaro and firebird by GM
just a name as for the ugly headlights .....thats called a muscle car look :)
trans am with the pop up headlights are trying to look to much like a vette in my opinion
t tops rule .....any car that you can take the tops off in good weather are great ......to many people miss out on our aussie summers being couped up with a roof
look around a little more with the air pump and maybe there is a way round that hopeless vette belt routing .......we got the batter end of the deal in that department

Vette Obsessed:
stingraynut, I have my old air pump packed up in the shed and can get it out tonight and get it to a post office, just e-mail me your address.

I would like it returned when you are done with it and don't want it modified so perhaps you can install mine onto your car while you send your original off for modification?

Stingraynut:
Thats excellent news, vette obsessed, wish I’d been able to check my emails earlier than 7pm, I could have sent you my address.

Firstly is yours an 87-91 ? otherwise the brackets may be different.

If so……I promise not to modify it, or damage it. Won’t be connecting the pipes up, just the bracket points to support the belt.

I’ll fix you up for the postage and whatever, and return it asap.

If yours is 87-91 (I did know what year your vette was but it’s lost now amongst a brain full of vette pictures and two computer crashes)
Could you send it express post tomorrow (sat) morning ?



Thanks,  

S’nut

Vette Obsessed:
S'nut, my Vette is a 90 so no problems there.

I just got home so I couldn't get it out tonight but I'll try get it to the post office tomorrow morning to express it out.  I'll probably be able to post here on Sunday to confirm.

I've got your details written down now so you can edit your post if you choose.
