    Ebay Hosing

    I have bought and sold many times on E-Bay with no problems. My feedback is over 150 with 100% positive. When buying: Don't purchase from someone who has negative feedback, doesn't list the shipping costs or gives a very vague description and won't answer your questions. When selling: Describe...

    Compressor deal

    I just found what I think is a pretty good deal on a compressor if anyone is in the market. It is a Campbell-Hausfeld, 4HP, 3 cyl.,60 gal. vert. tank, 13.5CFM @ 90PSI, 11.6CFM @ 140PSI. Cast iron pump with a life of approx. 6500 hrs. and a 3 year warranty. Harbor Freight has them for $699 so I...

    Body Lift for a 60 C1

    The body is plenty strong. When I lifted mine off, I had 2 people on each side lifting on the rocker panels. Once up, I had the frame rolled out and the dolly rolled in and set it down. I read in an old NCRS Corvette restorer about putting down some tires (without rims) and rolling the body up...

    why do some C1 emblems have silver and other have gold?

    All 58-60 front & rear and 61 rear emblems had gold letters with a silver backing plate. In 62 the rear emblem was changed to silver letters with a black backing plate. All service replacements had silver letters. It is said that the original gold letters would deteriorate to a silver color due...

    got a sand blast cabinet, now what media do I use?

    Here's my cabinet. It exhaust's to the outside so no dust in the garage. Top load so it saves on space. High quality product, highly recommended.http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a17/jwd60/2005_1125Image0001.jpg http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a17/jwd60/2005_1125Image0002.jpg

    got a sand blast cabinet, now what media do I use?

    I just got mine from TP TOOLS. Very well built cabinet. Much higher quality than the Harbor Freight made in China cabinets. I did however go to Harbor Freight and picked up 50# of glass beads and 50# of Alum. oxide. Try to get this stuff locally as the shipping is a killer.

    Brain Fart-Like the C6

    I don't know about the earlier models but the C5 had multiple problems that were never corrected during the model years of 97-04. GM denied many of them because a recall costs $$$$$$$. I now am hearing of many recurring problems with the C6. I've owned my 60 for over 30 years, I kept my 01 for 2...

    C1- 2X4 Repro Air Cleaner Gripe

    Sorry to hear about your problems. I've spent thousands of $$$$ at Vette Products of Michigan and I'm very happy with their products and their service. I bought a 2X4 air cleaner from them 20+ years ago to replace a beat up original. The quality was great and it looks perfect.

    '59 2 x 4 carbs

    Something seems amiss. If it was running good before your friend "tweeked" it, return it to how it was before he touched it. They do run a little rich until warmed up, but they run fine after that. What ever you do, DON'T completely close the idle mixture screws on the front carb. The factory...

    best garage floor coating??

    I used RaceDeck and it's great. Underneath it is a peeling/lifting coat of epoxy coating. The nice thing about RaceDeck is that it acts as a vapor barrier and insulator so when you have to lay down on it, it's not cold like concrete would be. Everyone who has seen my garage went out and bought...

    Dependable Auto Shippers

    I bought my C5 from an out of state dealer and was trying to find a way to get it home. After ALOT of research and hearing many horror stories, I was reluctant to hire any transport company. Reliable was recommended by a few people (even though an internet search showed several problems). I...
