What version of the Hurst Roll Control was in use in mid-late 1969? I'm about to install the brake lines on Ben's Nova, and am thinking about installing a vintage Roll Control.

I think this is what Ken B has on his ZL1 and we'll as what my dad has on his Nova. I think this or the cast iron oNE would be acceptable for 1969.

Hmmmm.... now to find one!!!
You could keep the vintage feel with oNE of these add a Hurst decal from a model car kit and 80% wouldn't notice it wasn't vintage.
Value priced ebay one:

I think these could pass for a vintage feel.

That's a good idea, thanks! Their link to the instruction sheet actually loads a pdf from the Hurst Roll Control!

Would the switch be black or chrome in 69 ? (a better question would be when did the switch turn black)?
I have a 70 Hurst catalog and it shows both the chrome and black switches in the illustrations, but I'm pretty sure the picture showing the chrome switch is an older pic.

How about that Shaws Speed Shop decal PXTX? Available? Tell me where to send the proceeds.

In 69 most buttons would be black. 65-68 most were chrome.
That's not to say you couldn't get a chrome button through the early 70's The chrome ones are a tough find.

If you are running a reasonable tire out back, a BB Nova will incinerate rear tires at will and the car wont move, no need for a roll control, take it from me. Don't even need to drop the clutch at 3k, just mash the pedal from a stop. All depends on the tire, I run straight 14" 70's and sometimes it's like they're dipped in Crisco

We are running 245 60's, still no match for the torque but we want the old school look....
What young kid doesn't want a line lock!?!
Also, they really do help you on the line at the drags.

I'm planning to set this thing up so that if he punches the gas, it flops.... I don't want him getting himself hurt.
My dad made the throttle rod long so I did not have full throttle. He did while I was at work so I did not know until much later

Do you guys know what vintage this solenoid style is from? Differs from the Shaw thinner style from this post.

Late 70's early 80's
The earlier stubby style used a stamped solenoid. No decal

No box pic. snagged these off of ebay. trying to get an era correct unit for my '68-'71 era build. I appreciate all the help. thanks for reply. i have a single master cylinder, wasn't sure if this solenoid version was same late '60s era as the skinny shaw speed style, but different/unique because of it being listed for single unit as mentioned on instruction sheet. thanks again.

I never noticed the dual vs single before, but I felt like both versions wereally correct for late 1960's. When are your instructions dated? They clearly illustrate it.

This happens to be the earliest Hurst Line Loc I've seen, for reference
