Nice work and a great looking 63 SWC, but I might be a little prejudice! The ermine white exterior with the red interior is a great combination. Ray

Paint Codes I believe the interior and exterior paint codes were the same. The interior was not buffed-rubbed to a high gloss. You should be be able to find the information that you need at this site: http://www.corvettepaintcodes.com/ Ray

Hi! John Great Car! and it is from a great car guy; you have to be very happy that your car was chosen! Congratulations! Ray

Just installed an after market 091 coil on my 63 340HP. Only have about 100 miles on it but everything is fine as of now. Ray

Hi! I believe that most exhaust systems are supplied by Allen's. I purchased mine directly from Allen's for the 63 with 2 1/2" exhaust and it was marked "OFF ROAD". John H. posted that no one is making the correct sounding off road system. The system I am using is very quite. If you are...

Great job! Now that you have some extra time, would you like to help me! Enjoy that beautiful 63, you have earned it! Ray

Hi! John Sorry! to here that you will not be at Carlisle. I was looking forward to thanking you in person for the help and guidance on my restoration projects. I know what you mean about working in the shop, now that the 63 SWC is 99% done I am having Corvette restoration withdrawal...

Will be there Thursday evening, Friday and Saturday AM. Hope to park the 63 in one of the fun displays. Ray

Great idea! Ray

When I set up the trailing arms on my 63 I use the 1/16" first style shim with double holes on each side of the trailing arm. I then used the second design shim with the slot to fill the space during the alignment process. I then used plastic tie wraps through the end holes to secure the shims...

Hi! Collin It sure sounds like everyone had a good time, sorry I missed it. Maybe you could schedule the date closer to Corvette at Carlisle weekend so that many of us that drive a distance could make it a mini vacation. Just a thought! Ray

Well I bid $17,500 for the 65 and told the seller that I would be willing to bid higher if I could get the car on a lift and remove all the windshield moldings to verify condition of the birdcage and the frame. I believe that rust is like mice, when you see one, you can bet there are more that...

Hi! Gary I have been working the bugs out of the 63 SWC. I have only driven the car about 175 miles. I was having troubles with noise from the clutch area and vibration from the rear of the car. I solved the vibration problem by rotating the drive shaft 180*. Hopefully I solved the clutch...

Hi! Haven The 65 coupe is not a car that I would plan on keeping. I have a price in mind that I am going to offer. I just thought it would be fun to get others opinions. Ray

I looked at a 1965 Coupe today that will be sold to settle an estate. The lawyer has recommend that the car be sold through a closed bid sale. The person that bids the highest price will be the buyer. I thought it might be fun to to have the forum members provide me with what they think would...

Hi! Bill I would hollow grind the holes from the outside to about twice the size of the existing hole. I would then use resin and glass cloth to fill the hole. I start with the first cloth cut (I normally pull the cloth until I have the desired size) rather than cut with scissors to a little...

Hi! Jack Here is a simple method that I used with the 63. I used the jack and chain method on the 65 and found this process to be quick easy and safe. I used 1/2" threaded rod with commercial hanger type beam clamps. I work with both sides of the spring at the same time and doubled nutted...

Hi! Barry Thanks! My wife and I have stayed in Hassisburg the past few years. What I would like to do is find a location North of Carlisle. I am not concerned with the 30+ minute drive, I just want to stay in a rural type setting (small town) and to the North of Carlisle. Thanks for any...
