    Differences between Z06 and Z07

    I just ordered a Z06 with several of the Z07 options (alacarte), I didn't want the harsher (stiffer) suspension or the Michelin Cup tires. I got what I wanted and not what I didn't. I got the full Z07 rear spoiler, but a smaller version of the front splitter with ground effects see photos Aero...

    Engine Build Experience

    RPO PC Engine Buid and PD5 Buyer Tour they cover both the engine build an plant tour watching assembly I believe it includes books from both. I'm really looking forward to the experience when I build the LT4 Engine for my '17 Z06.

    Question: 2017 Z06 Option Paint Protection - Associated Accessories #7 area

    Considered museum delivery but if dealer installs, that takes away that option.

    I recently be came the caretaker of a 1964 Corvette Sting Ray. I love the car and have been going through it changing fluids, greasing, adjusting the solid lifter cam and all that fun stuff. The car has quite a history and was displayed for 6 months at the museum in 2000. The owner of the car at...

    Question: 1967 Corvette Stingray factory built small block car built with big block hood

    Yes, my 64 is an AO Smith built coupe, final assembly was the last day of production on July 21, 1964. I have an odd mix of options L76 C60 N11 M20 T86 J50 J65 U69 G81 P92 which make the care some what rare. My dad worked for Rochester Products starting in 1939 finally retiring in 1986. He was...

    Question: 1967 Corvette Stingray factory built small block car built with big block hood

    Nice to have another factory experienced person chime in "General Mommie" always wanted those lines moving, I love the clamp story, that's the way it was. For the folks who know Sting Rays in and out I am always impressed and in awe at the details they've documented but then the human factor...

    Question: 1967 Corvette Stingray factory built small block car built with big block hood

    Interesting story, the damaged mold is definately possible. (The GM factory I worked at had close to a 100 mold makers and mold repairmen, so they would have jumped on that problem quickly.) I've read the A.O. Smith bodied C2s arrived at the factory completely assembled and painted. This would...
