    63 RestoMod Versus Restoration

    Resto-Mod Okay, well, you asked our opinion, so here is my 2% of a dollar: If it was a coupe, I would restore it. It's a 'vert. Mod it. You are already missing the original motor, and who knows what else. You did not say if it was a fuelie car, or with knock off wheels or sidepipes-all...

    Most essential piece in your garage?

    Tools I'm with DarkShark and Grumpyvette. You gotta have the tools. I realize for some, the garage is a storage place for the 'Vette. For me, it's a work zone. Those tools include the books of knowledge. I probably have about 75% of grumpy's collection, including some Chevrolet and...

    C5 or C4?????

    Bargain That e-bay car seems like a bargain to me. How unique is that with the red interior? I would want that car at that price. Wow. Rick :gap

    Base Timing/Centrifigal Advance w/Pertronix Ignitor II

    Hi there - I am running a Pertronix as well, but not sure of the difference between a I and a II. Although it's a bit more effort, you could always remove the springs and weights altogether to set your base timing, then reassemble. This way would work. Also gives you a chance to lube...

    Where to Measure Float Level

    Agreed I have to agree with Mike. I usually measure in from the "toe" (closest to carb center). Can't recall just now but I think it's 3/8" - 7/16". I also hold everything with my thumb and forefinger and turn the bowl upside down and see where the float "drops" to and give a good visual...

    Aw. shucks... Thank you, Bob! I appreciate that. :upthumbs There are a lot of nice cars in here. I like all Corvettes!:v I have been toying with the idea of putting '78 Pace Car wheels on. I think the red pinstripe on the wheels might go well with the red interior and red pinstripes...
