[Chevelle-list] Johann - Hooter Assembly

[Johann Grobler]

All Right!!! I mean the horn assembly.  Hooter play with my Tooter!  We in South Africa are very Brit orientated.

    Hooter (?) Assembly ??????    Do you mean the horn?     In the US, Hooter Assembly means something that is entirely NOT related to automobiles.  See www.hooters.com :-)

    Hullo Rick,
    Thank you for the welcoming.  Only concern I have is the Hooter assembly.  Are there springs? and the sequence of assembly.  Can't remember.

    I've also been recalled to the trenches for the next 4 months as Process Engineer so this is nice money from home to spend on the Malibu!  I went into retirement in 2003 at age 60.

      Great to have you.  I believe that in the past we've heard from Italy, Sweden, Germany, Mexico, Australia and Bolivia.  Now we can add a member in South Africa.   I hope that we can help.

        Hullo from South Africa!

        I've picked up a 65 Malibu Chevelle 230 Sedan for R3000 ($450).  See the 65 pics on Team Chevelle.  What a pleasure to work on a Chevy again.  I used to work for GM SA (Product Engineering) in 65-66 so don't try to work my age. I still like my Chevy although I am now paid to stay at home! 

        Regards,
        Johann

          Like it has been said - it is a great group.  Just don't ever leave asking us to take you off the list - there are instructions to do so from the adminstrator and then we have our own Craft-O-Matic rules.

            Hi to all group members. I've been basically watching from the sidelines. But I just have to say how I admire the camaraderie of this group. Most members act like real friends... 
            someone you can turn to with a problem.

            When I was younger I worked at a Pontiac dealership. (keep hanging around until they offered me a job) Ended up staying 6+ years. Started out washing cars then worked up towards helping out at the Service Tower checking in customers cars, handing out work to the mechanics, etc. 
            (eventually bumped heads with the owner's son - we know who won that fight)

            Then I got a job at the local Oldsmobile parts department until it finally closed down. Never could get a job with the Chevy dealerships. I'm 100% G.M. all t he way. 

            Took a break from the car scene for a while.
            (I remember it took my hands about two weeks to heal - busted knuckles, wear & tear, etc.) 

            I got to the point where I just couldn't deal with some of people (customers) anymore. The worst were the wealthy ones. The average guy was the best. I'd even let several behind the counter & we'd look either on line or in person for the exact part they needed) Sorry if this post is a bit long winded. 

            I just want to say what a great bunch of fellows this group has. That I have a place to turn if I need the help. By next fall or so I'll be looking for a !966 - 1967 Chevelle. (never been too big a fan of the 68 -69; can't afford a 1970) My health forces me to look for a turn key type (or one that doesn't need much work) Somewhere in the 15K range - if the prices don't head towards outer space. A street driver. 

            Lastly, does anyone remember a post from about a year or so ago that included an atta chment (or private website) where the owner did his own resto? (I hope it was this group; I'm in a couple) I remember the car being a '67 (maybe 66). The car was painted brown. He had smoothed the firewall, etc. I think is was switched over from an automatic to four speed. It had several photos of the work in progress. If I can find that site it would really get my enthusiasm going again. Any ideas who's it was? Keep up the great work guys! Thanks ahead of time for any help.
