I have a new (in the G.M. box) front fascia / bumper cover for sale. I will not try to ship this as it is quite large and UPS wont take it. I live 20 miles north of Detroit. This needs to be picked up by the buyer. $300.

Transmission numbers are not related to the vehicle build numbers. Those numbers (on transmission) were stamped on the transmissions as they were built.they have no value except to the transmission itself and were (and still are) to identify product, date of build and location of building...

I think Jan was waiting for someone else to try this before he did his. Thanx for verifying the fact that both sides use the same mount (with the minor modification I reffered to last year) OK Jan your turn!!! Turbota. (just kidding)

Year One has the carpet. Great match in color,and fit. Turbota

dsmith4994, NO. I paid over $100 for this when I thought I needed it.If I can't sell it, I will give it to whoever buys the car, along with the other parts and documentation I have regarding these cars. Turbota.

I have the last original one in the box - un-used. if a used one is worth $250, mine must be worth $2500. But I would sell it for $150. Throw in another $14,850 and I will give you #70 (bonified Festival car with a pretty good history. (no joke on the car being for sale) Turbota.

Jan, you are absolutely correct about the sides being identical. I posted the dimensions about a year ago when a lot of people were going to spend a lot of money for nothing. both sides started out as the same part number THE ONLY DIFFERENCE WAS A "TAB" CUT OFF THE LEFT SIDE STOCK MOUNT TO CLEAR...

Do you have the rear window sunshade yet ?? I have an extra one, and since I am going to sell the car (#70 ) I won't need it. Let me know if you are interested in it. Turbota.

Mr. Turbota, The car sitting in the museum is car #235584. You may find it interesting that the "Doner Value" was $12,099.00 (ours cost what?). Mr. Fittipaldi's vehicle was # 235275, and was valued at almost 3 times that amount for tax purposes. So car #235275 should be the actual...

No sheet on 225641.

So much for the info I got from the "informed" guys. Nice detective job. Sounds like your car has a little more history behind it. Thanx for the info. Turbota.

Dave, The best guess is a Communications Company (radio, television) No "for Sure" info on it. Most of the people, other than Indy guys and G.M bigwigs, that were given the cars to drive were media types. UNO ia a big media company in europe, so this makes sense. Maybe the race was televised in...

ALXTTA 1 I do not have the sheet for VIN # 227632. But based on the vin, it could have been at the race festival. Sorry ! DaveG your car (227409) was driven from May 9,1989 untill May 22,1989 by Bob Tezak from UNO. The plate that was assigned to it was number 130. I have no further info on...

The number on the transmission "I.D." tag means nothing to the sequencial build number for the vehicle itself. The build operation at the General Motors transmission plant at Three Rivers, Michigan built our transmissions "off-line" These were built in an area of the plant that used to do...
