Mine is for sale if anyone wants it let me know. As far as the height of the cars. You can put them any where you like. Up here in CT. you have to be carefull cause the roads suck. The first Grand Sport I built was a coupe and I set it nice and low. The first time my wife and I went for a ride I...
I have installed a few LT1's in older vettes and other cars. I am putting one in my C1 project. I'm using a SRIII frame. They don't perform as well as the LS1 moters but I like them and they run great. I have seen to many problems with LS1's. The LT1 is still a good old small block. ( well kinda )
Larry. That sucks. Who did the chrome? I would have a fit if that where me. So someone got a good part back and you wound up with this? Thats just not right.
Larry. I have a 454 LS6 crate motor in my 65 chevy Biscayne. It was bought before GM changed to roller cams. Before I installed the motor I changed the cam to a soild lifter set up.The intake is an Offy crossram. The car has a richmond 4+1 trans and a 356 12 bolt. It pulls like a bear. It ran...
You will be hard pressed to find one for 40.000. It will cost me almost that to build my own. And thats doing all the work myself. Beware of any of these places that sound to good to be true. Alot of these unknown builders will take your money and you won't see them again. Makes me think of Dean...
Fatboy. I to know of what you speak. I looked for a good 58 60 for a few years. I wanted a complete car but all that I found where either Total junk or way to much money for what was there. I found a very nice body a few weeks ago. But there is no trim or anything for that matter. Just a nice un...
Larry. Your right you should put all the dynamat in first. Then drill any holes or whatever after. All you need is a good heat gun and some gloves so you don't burn your hands. A small roller works well in some areas. I'v got all the body work done on one side of my 60. and I'm starting the...
Larry, as Jonh Z said you do not need any glue. I used dynamat in my first grand sport coupe. I even did the roof before the headliner went in. With the windows up you almost could not here the sidepipes. As for glue staining the glass. It is possible. With a light color paint I would not take...
Barry and Larry I did not mean to make it sound like I was talking just about you guys. I mean in general. When I see posts about people wanting to know how much it costs to have a car done sometimes they cry about prices alittle to much. When you think about it, the body and paint are all...
Guys no offense but you make body shops and guys that work on these cars sound like crooks. If your using a small shop or a one man shop maybe he can absorb some extra work. But nobody and I don't care how long they have worked on corvettes or any other cars can tell for sure what is under the...
What color is the car going to be? Most guys including myself don't like clear on non metalic colors. White, red, black,yellow and so on. Single stage paint looks super nice when sanded and buffed.
Thanks guys. I have already got some good help and leads on parts from this forum. Rich. I talked to you and your wife at the hartford show I think last year. I'm sure you could help deplete my check book.I know Ray where you have your work done. I have done some work for him in the past. He's a...
