6/16/2015 Van Steel Coil Overs and Wilwood front disc brake conversion

6/15/2016 I ended up sending the "perfect" and "rust free" frame I purchased off of eBay to Roger Gress in Michigan for repairs because something just didn't look right to me. Roger is a really nice guy, but I think he is pretty much retired and therefore it took him around 5 months to repair...

Here are a few more shots. Now I just need to finish touching up the welds and attach the body mount.

8/24/2015 Long story short, the original frame was not repaired correctly, so I bought a "rust free, no hit, best frame i've ever seen before" off of eBay. Well, needless to say, it turned out the other way. Instead of taking another loss, I decided to put my limited welding and fabrication...

3/20/2015 The paint and body shop finished gluing the panels on today. She is all one piece again.

2/25/2015 After sanding I applied a rust encapsulator primer. I also used Eastwoods internal frame coating to spray and coat the inside sections of the upper birdcage.

2/24/2015 These pictures did not turn out very clear, but I sprayed the green zinc oxide paint on the birdcage today and it looks really nice. .

1/16/2015 Drip rail repair progress. BEFORE AFTER BEFORE AFTER 1/29/2015 I picked the car up this morning from the body shop. The drip rails have been replaced and the other necessary metal repairs to the birdcage are complete. I also had them lightly soda blast the...

10/17/2014 The radiator shroud spot welds let loose on one side. I drilled 3 holes then plug welded them and ground them smooth. This only took about 30 minutes and was well worth the effort. 12/30/2014 Correct intake, but i plan on using a 461 intake from a 64-65 with a...

10/17/2014 Well, the cage is a bit worse than i thought, but still no real major issues or concerns. I removed the body mount/splash panels from the rear wheel wells and the latch pillar fiberglass so the metal shop can have access to the cage. I am not the worlds greatest welder, so i am...

8/01/2014 No real progress, but I did put my new gantry crane to use and reinstalled the body back on the frame today. The hoist straps from Corvette Central were way too long, so ended up using two tie down straps instead. Not sure why CC cant figure out an appropriate length for their body...

This is posted on the other forum, but I am going to slowly start transferring my build threads to this forum. I purchased this car in May of 2014 and slowly started working on it that June. -This is a numbers matching 340hp car with Daytona Blue exterior and Daytona Blue Interior. A...

Very nice!!!

I'm glad it was a simple fix!

Look at the top of the steering box and you will see a nut over a stud. The stud has a slot in the middle of it for a flat head screwdriver. Loosen the nut with a 9/16 wrench and then turn the stud with a flat head. That should tighten your steering up. In addition, have someone turn the...

215s are as wide as you will be able to go without modifications. 215s will rub up front on the frame by the steering box bolts. go wider-more rubbing.

64 Coupes are beautiful, but unfortunately they are the least popular year for the coupes. What is the HP rating? Any other options? If it is has been frame off restored and has a higher hp rating, then i would say no less than 50,000. IF it is a 327/250 or 300hp engine and has been fully...

Any pictures?? BTW, the new 66 NCRS restoration guide comes out in August if you can wait that long.
