Thanks Barry:) I'll be putting it through a frame off in another couple years, once I get some room. When that happens, I guess the wheel well area on all 4 corners will get a good cleaning and get stripped down to the fiberglass. I guess I'll just start cleaning early.

Just wondering about the wheel wells on a mid-year. I was doing some brake work and saw some road grime, so I started scraping. Came down to bare fiberglass. They didn't have undercoating back then did they? And did I just scape stuff I wasn't supposed to? Or is it supposed to be just bare...

Sorry for the ignorance, but what is jute padding? I've seen several references, but not sure exactly what it is? Thanks.

Cool pics. Nothing like seeing vintage Corvette pictures...:)

Looks like it was code 473 and they built 2,682 of them at an option cost of $139.90...

Very nice...almost there. By the way, that is a nice body dolly you have...is that the one from Noland Adams or did you fabricate that yourself? Looks pretty secure.

Just waiting for the line clip bolts to come in and I'll be replacing it. Fuel is already drained. Back to the original topic though, do you think I'll be alright with the Wittek clamps they provided (Zip)? And when you say ring clamps, are you talking about the worm gear ones? Like the ones...

What do you think?...:)

Hey John, it's a 63 and it's the ~15 inch rubber hose piece that connects the fuel sending unit to the main fuel line. And it's held on by two clamps.

It seems as though Scottsdale always have more of an "atmosphere" than Palm Beach. I mean we'll probably see equal prices that we saw in Scottsdale, but PB just doesn't have the hype.

So you think it would be ok to use a new one? Unfortunately, like John said, Wittek went out of business. This is just a temporary fix on the fuel line until I start the frame off. Maybe it would be best to just use a worm gear clamp. I mean after all, it's not going for B Gold or TF awards...

Yes, now I am having seconds thought about using them on the fuel line. Maybe that's why there were worm type clamps on there in the first place.

No apologies necessary Bob. I just consider myself one of the younger ones who own a mid-year, so I thought because I had to ask twice, the second inquiry may have seemed impatient, which it wasn't meant to be, I just wanted to read the article. I found out through the other forum, it was...

I'm not sure I get this response...but I would be interested to know what model year you think I drive? Oh and also provide what month the article showed up in CE, that would great too...:)

So I take it they're reliable?

Once again, what issue of Corvette Enthusiat is it? The latest one I have it May...didn't know June was released yet. Thanks.

As you tighten the screw...the square shaped section at the tip of the screw rises and it tightens. I got mine with the new flex fuel line and wondered how it worked too (you're not the only one).

I'm guessing you're talking about Corvette Enthusiat magazine? I didn't see an article...I'm looking in the May 2006 issue.

Definately not a beauty shot, but that's what hibernation is all about. It was so cold, that the top could not latch down in the back while the front hooks on the front of the top were latched...

Looks great...nice job. Can't wait to start in on mine.
