Actually not so much. This has been mostly fun and quite nice to do. What I call hard work was my previous car I can still taste sand blasting sand in my mouth when I think that project :puke Anyway, this ´64 Vette is nice car. I used to own one back in 1990´s and it was good car and it had...

Thank you. Actually parts are quite easy task. Local dealers have deasent stock and what I can´t find here I can always order from USA. At best posible case parcel will arrive at same week. Usually USPS airmail is cheapest way to get parts. If I need something really big then I use one of my...

I have done at last winter small scale resto for my ´64 coupe. Now e.t.a. for first start is next Wednesday. So here is some info what has been done and what has happened. All pictures you can find here But some extra info: - This is what I bought. Nice driver - Headliner was ugly - But...

Thank you every one for replys. I cheked yesterday what I have and one thing came out and without suprise: Parts are in car, in box, in plastic bag and ofcourse missing. Now I have to deside what to do, but your comments has been great help :thumb

This car is nice driver and I like to keep it like that. Maybe Vintage is correct way to go, but does anybody have any experience of Hot Rod Air? It is relatively easy find Corvettes in Finland if you like C3 - C6 cars. C1 - C2 are much more harder to find. Myydään Chevrolet Corvette -...

I bought couple weeks ago nice driver condition ´64 coupe. It has nice options (L75, M20, A31, A01, C60, U69 and leather seats). Only bigger problem is that A/C is not working. It came partly in car, partly in box and plastic bag. My idea is replace remains of factory A/C with new Vintage Air...

And today this was at Ebay No stripe, no numbers etc. Fake or not but it looks nice without stinger stripe. Ok ´63 hub caps are not so nice in this car.

Yes this was funny :chuckle Actually I am interested to see factory correct car. I think there is no stinger stripe and no engine size numbers. All which I have found have at least stinger stripe.

In Noland Adams book there was story of problems at factory with std sb hood and for some time they installed bb hoods for all Corvettes. I dont remember but was it March of 1967? Maybe so, but does anyone here own or have pictures of one of these cars. I have never seen one and it would be nice...

Some pictures Here some pictures of my Corvettes With this ´64 coupe I started at 1993, but I wanted ´67 Then I traded ´64 to ´65 and it is little bit closer ´67 Now I have ´69 427/435. Not yet ´67, but at least right engine :-)

Hello, some previous owner has removed 427 numbers from the hood and Stingray badges from front fenders. Where I can find places for these items? I have to drill new holes, so it would be nice if they are at right place. If any of you have pictures taken these badges at their correct place I...

Hello, I bought couple of days ago very nice ´69 convertible with L71. Nice car indeed, but there is that original type foam air cleaner element. Ís there available paper element? I think for normal street use paper element would do nicely and for show is that foam element.

Thank you all for very good links. Somehow this project may go to right direction now on :-)

I am planing to start a new project. This time no more restoration for me. I have found ´65 coupe witch has seen lot´s of many things. I planned to install LS1 engine and T56 trans from Camaro or Firebird. Has anybody here done this before? Does someone do enginemounting parts and how you have...

RC= 327cid, mt, 250hp, 4bbl, Vette 1962 http://www.nastyz28.com/sbchevy/spcode6.html

One thing more. You can check exhaustpipe diameter. All 250hp cars and 300hp cars with Powerglide pipe diameter is 2". In 300hp cars with manual trans I think it is 2.5". I am not totaly sure for this detail at 1964 cars, but 1965 it it that way. Only place where you can check this one is center...

250/300hp I owned previously ´64 coupe with L75 300hp 327cid engine. Cars with 250and 300hp engine (base and L75) yellow area is from 5000 to 5300 rpm and orange aree is from 5300 to 5500 rpm. In high hp engines (L76 and L84) ylleow area is from 6300 to 6500 rpm and orange area is from 6500 to...

I have had two summers Coker Gold Line Radials in my Vette. They are very good looking, but gold line is maybe little bit too orange. Those tires are also very good to drive. They are much more smoother than white stripe Dunlop tires witch I used before.

Why you don´t try zinc plating? You get corrosion resistant and natural metal plating. It looks good and will last long.

There is 327 block # 3782870 witch might be very nice for my ´65. Date is A135, so it is made January 13th 1965, but front rh-side VIN Code/suffix area is very interesting. Usually there is A1234BC style code, but here is 855655249. Is this some Canadian system or what?
