Red interior? Looks great Ray. A very good friend had a silver / red 270hp car two years ago. He drove it to the Pomona Swap just to have fun and someone offered him stupid money for the car. It had red interior, and was silver with white cove. What an outstanding color on that car. Everyone...

base motor Your assumption is correct. The base Corvette motor was a 283 with flat top pistons, 9:25 to 1 compression and a 4 barell carb. The 195hp passanger engine had the same bottom end, but a 2 barell and single exhaust. The cylinder head in 59 was a power pack type with a 1.72 intake...

Timing change? Did anyone change the timing? ie., did you get a tune up, oil change? or other work? I need to know what work was done to the car to be able to see what they may have touched that results in overheat. Was it overheating while driving home? Or did it just puke once you turned...

a hammer !! Mechanics never use a hammer !!........except when things get stuck !! A hammer used on the center of the drum will break loose rust and stuck parts so access may be gained. It sounds like your e-brake cable is sticking....and yes the springs are weak. The car needs to be driven...

So many cars........so little time Currently I enjoy my wife's 77 that she bought new. I have sold all my Corvettes. Over the years, many friends have said" Jim, you want one of every year......just not all at once.!!" Well they may be correct. My favorites however, were Rochester fuel...
