Re: Oil Dipstick Tube for 67 SB
Jim------
The original tube for your application was swaged down at the top as the reproduction you received. Later REPLACEMENT GM tubes did not have the swaged down configuration, but the original tubes used on Corvettes did.
As far as finish is concerned, I believe that these tubes were originally zinc plated or manufactured from galvinized stock. It's possible that some of the early ones were plain but I don't recall ever seeing one like this.In Appreciation of John Hinckley- Top
