    1967 Clutch/Brake pedal assy. for sale

    I restored a 1967 brake/clutch pedal assembly that came with my car. The problem is that my car is a 66!! I already got the correct assembly and restored it, so this one is up for sale here first and then on to eBay if it doesn't find a home. I restored it with parts purchased from LIC. New...

    Replacing bushings on upper A Arms

    The upper A arms are in need of new bushings. I want to use the graphite impregnated poly bushings but have no idea how to undo the two massive nuts on either end of the crossbar that attahces to the cradle. How have you done it? Do I need special tools or do I have to take it to a shop to be done?

    Would you put this part on your car?

    Here is a used set of 84-87 upper A arms I bought from a vendor, as you can see the left one is dented. The undamaged right A arm photo is for comparison's sake. The vendor says it's normal and happens while torqueing or removing the bolts, but that the A arm is useable. What do you say? I say...

    Need picture of brake/clutch pedal assy 1963-66

    I'm specifically looking for closeups of the bracket that holds the brake pedal rubber bumper stop and brake light switch. That bracket is slightly mangled on my 66 and I need to see how it sits and bends on the pedal assembly. That will determine if I can repair it or need to replace it.

    Need help in Kalifornia

    Anybody close to Mountain View, CA (94041)? I need an outfit checked out over there: Corvette Junk. I might want to buy parts from them but they only do MOs and I'm leery about sending "naked funds" across the fruited plains.

    Help with door hinge rebuild kit

    Two of the door hinges on my 66 have play in them so I decided to purchase a hinge rebuild kit to do all four. All the spring ears are in good shape, no need to replace them. What I got was a kit with 4 pins (all longer than the stock ones by about 1/4" and 8 bushings - no instructions. Maybe...

    Shoulder seat belts for a 66

    OK, I got a very nice set of correct late 1966 push-button seatbelt buckles. The car, a convertible, did not come with shoulder belts, though I can install the bracket and add them. However, I don't want to go with the original setup, I want an inertial reel system. The set up I have in mind...

    Front suspension question

    I'm building a 1966 resto-rod with a tube chassis that accepts C4 components. Is there a major difference between the 1985-87 and 1988-96 front steering geometry enough to make me choose the latter over the former for sure? And other than the 88-96 caliper being 2-pistons, anything else...

    I am repairing fiberglass damage on my 66 roadster and need some help in identifying the kind of rivets I'll be using.

    Question for RamJet 350 owners

    This applies to C1s or C2s. What kind of gas mileage are you getting with your RamJet 350 crate engine? City, Highway and combined would help. Also, what rear gear do you have and what tranny are you using? For my 66 vert I have a choice to go with the RamJet 350 or a cam-upgraded LS1 engine...

    #4 Body Mount question

    Just got the new body mount set so that I can mate the body to the frame. The #4 body mount has two pieces of rubber to it. One is called simply a cushion and goes under the frame's #4 mount, the bolt will go up through it. The other is called a cushion assembly. It has a metal side and a rubber...

    Upgrade for 12" rotors/calipers

    Hello folks, I hope to get a response from this C4 group as opposed to the complete lack thereof I got in the "other forum": I'm building a hybrid C2, it has a tube frame that let's me use C4 components, including coilovers. The suspension and braking system will be from a 92 to 96. I plan on...

    Bonding Adhesive

    I'm going to be bonding some panels back on the '66 roadster in a couple of weeks so I need recommendations on which bonding adhesive to use. Some folks swear by Eckler's Vette Bond, others swear at it. Same for Corvette Image's product. Some folks have used Evercoat Vette Panel adhesive. My...
