The car looks great Robert! Do you plan on doing anything to the vette or just driving it and enjoying it? Take care, Brian

That is the great thing about the Corvette hobby, Ray. There are a lot a super folks out there. Glad to see that you are making such good progress on the car. Take care, Brian

Jane & I can't wait to hear more about this car. Please post some pics as soon as you get home, Robert Sounds like a fun summer car! Take care, Brian

The car looks great Tom. You have been making real progress. Keep those pics coming. Take care, Brian

That is such a great feeling Ray! Those solid lifter engines sound so tough. At the rate you are going, you will be driving it real soon. Take care, Brian

Old Bull, I love that car! I have a soft spot for solid axle cars and my first vette was a '61 It looks great with those wheels too.

Tom, I have found it once or twice at the Chapters store in Oshawa. You are right that it is difficult to find on the news stands here. Guess we need to break down and subscribe;) Take care, Brian

And you didn't come by to see me at the dealership! Gheez, that would have brightened my day:cool I was driving mine around last Saturday. Weather is getting better all the time. Here is a pic of mine a few years ago. I need to take some more soon. Take care, Brian

They used the "eggcrates" for 3 years..'70, '71, '72

Barry, After watching you dig into all the work on your '65 and your total enjoyment that you get from the car, I can't wait to see how much fun you have with the '78 Forget about selling the car in the future. Linda likes the car already and the two of you will have a blast with it. The...

I think that is the perfect name for the car, especially since your '65 is called "Baby" and the '78 is blue. Take care, Brian

6Shooter, That was taken last year when I was un-employed and was doing a lot of welding in my garage. I had to park the '65 outside to give me the fabricating space during the day, then I put it away at night:D Bruce, I love the look of that car on the track! (I was there driving the...

Hi Bruce, Great to see you on this forum. I love that car of yours. Post a pic of it blasting around Mosport last Labour Day......too cool Take care, Brian

For what it is worth, I have owned 2 '61 cars and could never get the brace out of them either. Post some pics of your car as you progress, we all love projects here:D

Hi VNV, I have always used the same 3M Adhesive spray. I never used 3 coats though, just one good heavy one on each surface. Never had a problem. Seems to me that it always took about a can and a half to do the carpet, but I couldn't swear to it though. Have fun, sounds like a great...

Barry, You will find that having one Corvette that is in great shape like your '65, will take the pressure off working on your '78. The feeling that you need it done right now will not be there and the car can sit for a period of time during repairs 'cause you can jump into the '65 and blast...

Hi Barry, The car looks to be very complete. The best part about it is that it appears that nobody (including Bubba) has been messing with the car too much before you found it. Finding parts will not be an issue for you and age, combined with poor storage has probably contributed most to the...

Hi Mike, Yes, she still has it. Your reaction is just what she wanted;LOL Take care, Brian

Congrats on making a deal for the '78, Barry! You will enjoy the car and before you know it, Linda might adopt it as her favorite driver. I bought my wife a very solid '78 for Christmas in '96 and we have used it as our "distance" car. I am willing to bet that you will keep this car...

Whoo Hoo! It's like coming home again. A real big thank you to Rob and the team for all their efforts in bringing this wonderful forum back so we can all continue this valuable exchange of information. I was going into withdrawl..........:D Take care, Brian ps: Happy B-Day Bob. You're...
