    Unhappy Head light Vacuume problems

     



    Does any one know if some one makes a electric motor that replaces the old vacuume set up, that opens and closes the head light assembly for a 72 Corvette Stingray? Also need to figure out some thing to open the windshield wiper door. This is also controlled by vacuume. Any Ideas guys beside scrapping this pice of junk. {GM} This is the wifes ride I'm all Ford and am starting to remeber WHY! GM #$%&*^%$# Junk!!


    Thanks for any help

    If you promise never ever saying anything against a beloved Corvette you are allowed to click the link.
    Go to "Tech Tips" and find the vacuum diagram.

    I'm sure your right there Denny, almost every hose in this thing is dry rotted. The wiring harness has to be redone because the coating on the wires are all cracked. The whole thing needs gone thru to be honest. Parts are missing, broken, rusted. My wife seams to think that I'm a miracle worker since I put her camaro back together after this accident. I hate to tell her that I ain't.
