Extracted a headlight/dimmer switch from a Grand Prix donor car at the scrap yard. Also an idler pulley to control the AC belt's vibration and rumble while running. Tough to find any G Body's nowadays.

Yup, pick n pull yards are drying up in S.Ont. When I go there are very few if any gbodies. Where did you end up ? Last I seen there was a gp in Cookstown last summer, and nothing at Doms the last 3 times I was there. I didn't hit a single yard this summer

up a 81 Malibu with no transmission so I put a th350 in it I just need a drive shaft and a fuel tank and put new fender and door on here's a few pics

My car's twin. Just curious, what did this survivor set you back?

 

[ssn696]

Picked up my new driveshaft from a local vendor. Ford 31-spline yoke mated to Spicer steel tube and yokes and 534G 'joints. I can confirm that changing to a 8.5 GN/442 rear requires a 1" shorter driveshaft. A Tremec TKO uses the Ford output spline.

Searched for transmissions. Going to my local 80s gm hotspot saturday with my dad to try and find a BOP Th350.

Pressed in some longer wheel studs and did some calculations tody just to say I did something. Sure is nice to have right tools though.
