I have what I believe is a correct, numbers matching L48 74' C3 built in May 74' while my son has what we believe is a correct, numbers matching L82 C3 built in February 74' . The judging guide says both the L48 and L82 should have the same dipstick. My son's dipstick is as described in the judging guide while mine is considerably different. Basically mine is shorter and is chrome on the pull loop and along the entire length. Also the tube on the engine on mine is shorter (which makes sense with the shorter length) and ends just at the top of the exhaust manifold while my son's tube stands up well clear of the exhaust manifold.
Since mine is a late built car I was wondering if I might have a 75' configuration dipstick.
Questions:
1. Can anyone tell me what the judging guide says about a 75' L48 dipstick?
2. Any other thoughts about why my dipstick might not agree with the judging guide other than the engine is not original to the car as stamped?
