You either love it or hate it. After searching all the Corvette forums, the vast majority think it suks, as do I.

That is by far the UGLIEST Corvette ever built.:puke:puke:puke

Jeff, My 65 (April 65 build) has its original hubcaps and the flag starts and ends with a black square. Jim

Jack left this A.M. after spending 2 days while we got his car all squared away. I shudder to think what would have happened if that u-joint would have let loose in the middle of "Moose Butt, Wyoming". For those that haven't met Jack yet, you're in for a treat. You won't meet a nicer, more down...

There's no data base that I'm aware of. If the motor is original, the 2 letter suffix of the assembly date stamped on the engine will tell you the HP and whether it had an auto. or manual trans. Jim

They were 1960 model year built in Nov. 1959. The VIN on the trans. didn't start until the 1962 model year.

They started stamping the VIN with approx. car #1322 built Nov. 16 1959. Each number was stamper individually without a gang holder. The gang holder wasn't used until April 1960. Jim

The Vin tag is attached to the drivers door jamb with screws until approx. car #1500, then it was moved to the steering column and spot welded. As far as value, depends on what is included/missing. That thing needs A LOT of work. If you can get it very cheap AND if you have the skills to do...

No. They lost their dealer status. I'm not going to trash them here. Just be cautious sending them money.

Keisler 5 - speed next generation transmission - Corvette Forum I would be worried if I had an order for a Tremec.

So, I don't have to clean my shop. Great. Looking forward to seeing you in Gig Harbor, Wa. this summer. Jim

I picked up my 65 coupe this past summer. I had been looking for 5+ years to find just the right car. They are out there. Keep looking. Jim

Then it seems to me that it should be Chevrolet that takes issue with it not all the cry babies on the NCRS forum. At least I got mine.:D Now that I have a picture downloaded, my wife can embroider it as well, but NOT for commercial gain.

I agree. I've never used Sta-bil in anything I own and have never had any fuel related problems. The gas in my 60 is about 18 months old and it ran fine when I drove it last week.:beer

Glenn, Do you remember what year & engine size those Dodge umbrella seals were for? Jim

Your symptoms are classic indictors of valve guide problems. It could be that they are worn or possibly the little O-rings have dried up and fallen off. The wet-dry compression test will tell you for sure. Jim

Title says it all. Thanks

I do everything. I let NOBODY touch my cars.

I'm sure everyone already knows this but, Tom products are second to none. Absolutely awesome would be an understatement. Jim

Still looking. Anyone????
