The compressor went out on my Corvette a few years back; it was replaced with an identical/original unit and I swapped from R12 to R134 at the same time. I can't tell the difference though I would ha

The TF GMC's had a slot in the dash for a tach or clock, but the TF Chevies had like what you would do in an AD truck. The dealer installed alternatives were to cut a hole in the dash as you are thin

The style that was used on the old trucks was common in the 50s / 60s; they may have been the premier brand in that era. You can still find them around...check the internet auction sites, etc. The di
