What year Corvette LanceB,
Gymklana first appeared on 1974 Vettes. Difference is ..
0.9375 (23.8 mm) dia front stabilizer bar
Heavier front bushings
550 lb rated front spring
304 lb rated rear spring
Option # RPO FE7G81 (1974)
Just noticed you have a 1981..
Option # RPO FE7
I had to replace the antenna on one of our vettes, I removed the rear tire and inner wheel fender to get at it. From inside the car it would very hard to reach and install the hardware with one hand because of the limited space.
Good Luck & Welcome to CAC
A few Corvette vendors have sales at this time of year to re-do interiors, shop around, but as stated already it's not cheap. With these vendor replacement interiors, they are fairly simple to do yourself with excellent results. I have re-done the interior on both my Vettes and found it easy...
There seems to be so many different answer's when it come to years and tire sizes. Our 1972 has 245/60/15 all around without any issues, some say you can even use 255/60/15 on the rear.
I went with a size I knew for sure would fit all around.
Happy tire hunting
I'm almost positive they were stainless, most years of Corvettes used it on window trims. But you could check out one of the vendors catalogs see what they sell, as a reference.
I painted one of our C3's with 1987 Corvette Red code #81. Alot of people comment on it's color, saying it's the nicest red they have seen on a C3.
Good Luck with your choice.

What happen depends where the leak is. Is it from the front / rear of the tranny, might be something as simple as a transmission line. Best you get under and have a look for the source, maybe we can suggest what might have caused the leak.
Good Luck
redvette78,

Did a search here and this is what I found in the C1 section. It might help as a starting point, can't remember who posted it, hope they don't mind me adding a link. They did an awsome job with the fab job...
401 KVette,
You have a great size tire with the 255/60's, you will enjoy the extra tire width on the pavement, plus they fill the wheel well nice. :thumb
73shark,
Yes the 295/50's are mounted on aftermarket rims, but with the same back space as stock rims. The 79 is also using the stock trailing arms, I did not have any issue with the parking brake bracket everything cleared. The fronts (265/50/15) also cleared everything even under full turn...
