    I have a new-in-package set of Goodridge stainless steel flex lines for 1994 through 1996 Vettes, part number 12205. Turns out I can't use it for my application.

    unladen weight of 1966 corvette convertible

    What do you mean? An African or a European Corvette? Sorry, couldn't resist. :D It's about 3000 to 3200 pounds depending on options.

    Information Wanted

    Marina Blue was a 67-only color, the 65 was Nassau Blue. Can you give us the info on the trim tags?

    In search of frame options for a 66

    Wow! I never thought I'd see this thread again. I went with Jamison's Custom Corvette's C4 tube frame, BTW.

    Interior pics needed

    Wolf, Why not do the tuxedo look with tan? You could keep the green dash and carpet or go black there and have the door panels, visors and seats in tan.

    Unique Midyear Dash

    Dang, he better have long arms to get to the knobs and switches on the passenger side. Either that or a full-time co-pilot.

    1967 Clutch/Brake pedal assy. for sale

    I restored a 1967 brake/clutch pedal assembly that came with my car. The problem is that my car is a 66!! I already got the correct assembly and restored it, so this one is up for sale here first and then on to eBay if it doesn't find a home. I restored it with parts purchased from LIC. New...

    Would you put this part on your car?

    Responses in the same order of questons/comments: yes, it can be straightened but I could tell (cracks). No, it would not be safe, aluminum subjected to that impact/stress will be weakened, to heat and straighten out would weaken it even further. Bottom line: That cross shaft is not repairable...

    Would you put this part on your car?

    UPDATE: Well, it's been almost 3 weeks since I deposited the money order I got from the vendor so I guess it was legit. The vendor in question was CorvetteJunk out of Mountain View, California. This was mostly my fault. I was reluctant to do business with a vendor who won't take credit cards...

    Replacing bushings on upper A Arms

    The upper A arms are in need of new bushings. I want to use the graphite impregnated poly bushings but have no idea how to undo the two massive nuts on either end of the crossbar that attahces to the cradle. How have you done it? Do I need special tools or do I have to take it to a shop to be done?
