    Question: Has anyone here undercoated their Vette?

    Undercoating a Vette I bought a Corvette that had been undercoated, perhaps when new. The end result was that the undercoating peeled away from the frame and sand and salt was trapped behind it. Some major rust problems because of that. Ol Blue

    drum brakes and trailing arms 63-65

    It's been awhile since I looked, but I think that the 63-64 trailing arms had a different "pad" for the jounce bumper to hit than the disk brake car trailing arms. Ol Blue

    1957 Corvette SS

    Tom, you aren't alone in your admiration. I've always loved that car too, and from the crowd around it at the Monterey Historics, (hard to get a picture) it appears that it is highly popular. Ol Blue
