    Question: 1954 Corvette in Mexican Road Race

    Someone should track it down. That would be a cool Documentary to watch on TV. I saw an advertisement for a show called "The Car Hunter" where this guy tracks down exotic, potentially valuable cars to buy and flip them. It would be cool if this car was found, restored and displayed where...

    The questions we all get asked......

    With my 1965 Corvette, I get the whistling gophers: "whats that go fer?" I give them a price spectrum and they follow up with a whistle. Also, I get the absurd low ball offers.

    Mid-year hoods

    I recommend you buy a repo 67 hood and hood frame. Take it to a corvette shop and have them glue them together while the frame is mounted to your car. 6 guys will hold it in place and talk for 15 minutes while it bonds. the hood will fit your car perfect. If you buy a hood from ebay or...

    That is an awesome car. I like how the car kept its identity despite the new improvements. All the great original styling but it drives and handles like a new one, really cool. I'm sure it'll be a car people magnet.

    Question: synthetic oil for midyear vettes?

    Maybe so, I think the differences will be noticed in ware after a significant period of use rather than felt performance. At least your probably not giving money to the middle east when you use synthetic. I'll pay the extra for that reason alone.

    Question: synthetic oil for midyear vettes?

    John Z's advise is good if your still rolling with a flat tappet cam. I'm running hydraulic rollers. You can't see them and they really improve the characteristics of your engine. I have heard that the new low zinc oils are very devastating on flat cams!!
