Got it this past Monday and the next day I was walking with the walker down to the nurses station. Could go home today, but Sharon will be home after work tomorrow and it makes sense to stay one more day. My surgeon said he can make that happen! So go home tomorrow and then work the PT. I...

for my car in the Corvette Calendar contest. My car made the final 13. There were other C1 and C2's that I believe also made it, their owners will need to confirm. But, thank you all again!:beer

Ok, so this is a bit off the wall. But then haven't we all been a bit off the wall. At any rate, as most of you know I have a 1960 Corvette that I redid. I entered it into a 2011 Corvette Calendar Contest and I made the final round of voting. Right now I am in third place, but a number of...

Corsa Exhaust had their 8th annual all Corvette show at their plant in Berea, Ohio today. While the weatherman said rain in the morning, we were supposed to be back into the sun by noon. Well, almost!
We drove the 1960 to the show and the rain was coming down in spots in our 50 mile (one...
well, I thought it was a '60, some of the characteristics of the hardtop were correct, but key one which I missed until I went to put the roof back together was the roof hold down brackets. And that is when I found out that my hardtop was really a 56-58 (or something like that) and not a...
I have made some other stuff for the garage walls and decided I needed to add a banner for the '63SWC. When I get it on the wall I will post some photos.....in the mean time here it is on my floor....
it is actually 74" X 39"........
How do I do it?
I take the photo in high resolution...
this was done for me by one of the guys on the photo forum I belong to. I took the car photo and he adjusted it with the "extras".....what do you think?
here is what he started with.....he does nice work.....
well, change in plans, took the '37 Ford 502w/supercharger out last weekend and after some spirited driving getting ready to go, blew the head gasket....so the back up plan is to take the '64 coupe....we will be in Madison, Racine and south Bend (bailing out of Michigan) then heading home...
I bought a real nice set of '63 hubcaps because the ones that came with the car had been beat with a rubber mallet getting them on the wheels and putting small dents in the perimeter of the cap.
So what do most people do to get the hubcap on without putting dents on its outer edges?
Cars that are top flighted, what kind of paint do they have on them? Do they have base coat/clear coat or ? what kind of penalty does one incur for base coat/clear coat if that isn't the way to go? I am trying to get some direction on paint for my other '63 swc. With the economy down, I can...
From time to time the question comes up about repairing the C2 body. For the advanced body repair people this probably is of no help, but to the novice repair man, here ya go...
Handy little books...about $33 or so each, two volumes.

One of the guys I work with is a big boat and airplane nut and talked me into using the WEST system of 2 part epoxy along with fiberglass or carbon fiber, depenidng on the gap to be filled.
In the case of the '63 the rear wheel wells were moved inboard about 5.5 inches. I bought some black...
We got the body all mounted up and the doors set. We got the doors close, close enough for now. Because the stock radiator support on a 63 comes too close to the front of the SRIII frame, I had to get a different support.
I called Clint up at Coffman Corvette after being advised by Rich L. and...
I will need it for 4 to 6 months if I can't buy one.....anyone got the lower 1/2? Needs to be in good condition and needing no repairs....let me know if you do....(for a C1)

Take a look at the first 15 pages to give you an idea of how it looks....whne I get it I will post some photos of the book...
