Just subscribed as a result of a ‘67 roadster inherited by a friend from his father coming up on my radar. Car has sat for many years. Beginning negotiation. Already learned a great deal from your videos and comments.
In a time when everything is half-assed and stupidity is king, seeing such attention to detail and to doing things right is like medicine for the soul. Keep up the good fight!
You have the ultimate job. My first car was a 70 Camaro RS. I bought it when I was 16 years old, (1979). It had been in an accident, but had low mileage and not a spot of rust. My father was the police officer at the scene. I had a part-time job after school and had saved enough money to buy it from the owner's insurance company. I spent that summer tearing it apart at a firend's father's body shop. The crumpled nose and fenders had to be removed, half-frame replaced, interior completely gutted. It was a lot of work, but I learned a great deal that summer. Would love the opportunity to do another one. Keep the videos coming!
You have very informative videos and someone like me with no corvette experience is learning a lot. Hope to be purchasing a '64 from a family member who has had it since new in the coming weeks so now I have some better insight on things to look for. Keep up the great work!
I just purchased a 65 roadster that you restored in 2020 and discovering your channel is a pleasant surprise. Viewing your work in progress along with explanations makes me even happier with my purchase, knowing the work done was performed professionally.
Old Doc Kelly had a hobby of rebuilding corvettes. I helped him out. The early years are so simple; nothing more than a larger dune buggy, honestly. A rusted out frame is really nothing with the availability of new and better frames. We even fabbed most of one. At the right price a beautiful body with a shot frame can really work out well and pay off in the long run. Great video. I’m sure Dic enjoyed it in that great machine shop in the sky.
Ive been searching for a source for lots of C2 content to educate myself and get as much instruction as I can to improve my '66 coupe driver. The first thing I've learned is that I should just look for a better condition car as my frame isnt in very good shape and every seal, rubber bushing and wear item needs done. Until I find a nicer car, I intend to do improvements and replacements that I can afford and accomplish on my own. Your videos have provided a ton of good info and much encouragement already. All that said I have never seen so many C2s in any shop or video at one time. Your shop is quite the great example of a busy, yet clean and orderly which differs greatly from many I have seen. GREAT CONTENT !! Thanks.
I remember when I was in high school and I tried to convince my parents to let me buy a 66 Corvette coupe with a 327 & side pipes (cannot remember everything). They said the bicycle was fast enough. Enjoyed your TH-cam’s.
PLEASE keep showing total rebuilds!... I don't have a Corvette but would like to bring an '04 Miata that has developed rust underneath. These videos let me know the worst to expect and what it will take to do what I need. Thanks!!
Just sick because I’ll never be able to have this kind of high level restoration on a vetted IF I ever get to buy one. Great vid and even better work. Thank you.
New viewer, here. Your inventory is impressive, as is your commitment to only the very best restorations. I like that your frame paint jobs look exactly like the factory job would. I do remember the 1960s and my falling in love with the C2 "Vette. A friend had a '63 coupe. Red with black interior. I believe that it was a 350HP with a 4 speed. A real blast to drive. Too bad that whenever it rained, the rainwater ran into the inside of the car. It would stink for quite some time. I have no doubt that there is an easy fix for that problem today.
How in the heck don't you have more scriber's? Your attention to detail in second to none. I live in Apollo Beach. I finishing my 1969 AMC AMX GO PACK 390 WITH EVERY AVAILABLE OPTION. I'M going to get you more scriber's for sure. Neal
Just found this channel and love the walk arounds on the C2's. I have had a 65 coupe for 35 years now and is in need of new paint. Have had a 66, 396, a 63 coupe and my first was a 61 that I bought for $ 100.00. Keep up with the videos. Thanks
As I mentioned on the earlier video, the customer was smart to bring his corvette to you and I enjoyed seeing the transformation so much, I subscribed to your channel. This car is now truly a rebuilt classic from head to toe, that is ready to hit the road without any concerns and worries of what may be lurking underneath, ready to break. I would be proud to drive this car and hopefully this beautiful piece of automotive art will live on for many decades to come and be driven like it was intended! Great job.
Went to the O-ring pistons with stainless sleeves calipers. Got tired of them leaking two or three years down the road from siting to much. I do like your reviews.
Love your channel and the content!! I greatly appreciate all the details you go through. I’m learning a ton! Keep up the same approach to these videos. I love all the knowledge/references to NCRS spec too.
I like your channel, you do a great job explaining the work process/sequence. 1963 corvette head light motors, I could never get them to work correctly so I left them up, I hated them things. Just subscribed and looking forward to more content.
great job. I have a 67 roadster and need to swap out frame. grateful for all your insights, I am at the opposite end of the country in northern NH so I can't send it to you ., thanks again for the info.
Jr, I’m a new subscriber having found your channel a few weeks ago. I am learning so much viewing your videos and am working my way thru and “liking”all of them. Please keep them coming. I had a ‘62 in 1975, but sold it to purchase a business. I have a 2017 GS now, but have a yearning for a C2. Seems I need something to tinker with and polish. You have a great business model with these videos.
Hi Jr, How about some content on some smaller stand alone projects such as a Vintage Air install on a non-A/C C2 or Tremec install? Thanks, I do enjoy ALL your hands on content!!
It looks like great work. The black 64 has a black brake booster, thinking it should be a gold cad? Of course the blue 427 is a 66, if 65 it would be a 396. Not nit picking, just paying attention. Love your work.
Spectacular attention to detail. Old World Quality, in a modern crazy world. I tried to google you folks, however the only information that keeps coming up is your Facebook page. I am not a member of Facebook or any Social Media platform. I do I get in touch. MANY THANKS
I appreciate the compliment! I don't mention my business info in the videos because I don't want my content to look like a sales pitch. Check us out at www.classiccarsofsarasota.com
I don't know very much about C2 Corvettes, but I am trying to educate myself. I love your videos. One thing I am wondering about...I hear about the "bird cage" on Corvettes and how they are subject to rust issues. I don't see you mention that so far in the few videos I have watched. Do the C2 Corvettes not have that problem?
Nice work on that 66 convertible chassis replacement. I'm hunting for a 66 convertible small block numbers matching. Are any of the mid year convertibles that you have for sale? If so, how much? If none of the mid year convertibles that you have are not for sale, then would you know anyone that has one for sale?
Beautiful, does anyone do rack & pinion steering conversion? After all its not completely original anymore. But it definitely better than it was when it rolled off the production line.
We actually do a Borgeson steering upgrade which eliminates the problematic steering servo and replaces the steering gear box with a much better unit. The benefit is there are no permanent modifications to the car besides the column shaft which is replaceable. Thanks for checking out my channel!
We always rebuild the engine, transmission and rear end when we do a frame off. We figure there is no better time than when it is already apart. Thanks for checking out my channel!
Hello. Starting a frame off restoration of a 63 split red/red . After sandblasting frame what do you recommend for epoxy primer and frame paint. Thanks Troy
You can either powder coat the chassis like some of my more recent restorations or go with Eastwood ceramic 2K Satin Black chassis paint with their chassis black epoxy primer and after blast metal prep. Either way will be expensive but will produce an extremely durable show quality finish if done correctly. www.eastwood.com/eastwood-2k-ceramic-chassis-black-satin-and-activator.html
Thanks for checking out my channel! We have actually built quite a few cars for customers in CO, it's absolutely beautiful there and I'd love to take a mid-year through the mountains. If you decide to tinker with it yourself let me know and I'll help however I can.
Had a question my dad left me his original 1966 vette 327. It is all factory so I use it as nice driving car. Unfortunately someone backed into me and pushed the front chrome bumper in maybe about a inch so it looks like it's slanted. She also cracked some of my fiberglass on the body. But can the front bumper be realigned? Nobody notices it unless I point it out. But being a original 1 owner vehicle I was just curious. Thanks love your videos.
We start with a steam pressure washer on low pressure and various degreasers. Be very careful not to damage the fiberglass. Follow up with many hours using red scotchbrite pads and lacquer thinner / wax & grease remover. We seal the exposed bare fiberglass with a satin UV stable clear coat to preserve the finish.
We have a local source for hard to find C2 items, I pay around 6k for a good frame without powder coat. There are also differences in the 63-64, 65-66 and 67 frames. I always suggest inspecting the frame to make sure it isn't a converted C3 frame, doesn't have metal repairs and is appropriate for your year.
I have a local connection for some of the harder to get items like clean chassis, it sure isn't cheap though. We pay around 7k for a clean donor frame that isn't a converted C3. Thanks for checking out my channel!
This job cost right around 35k. This was a customer car so we didn't do the usual full build with paint, chrome, trim, interior, ect. Thanks for checking out my channel!
We always use a date correct original frame unless we are doing a full aftermarket resto-mod build. Once stripped and coated inside and out it lasts substantially longer than the first one did. Thanks for checking out my channel!
Roughly 35k including chassis, powder coat, engine rebuild, trans rebuild, rear end rebuild, ect. We did pretty much everything but interior, chrome / trim and paint.
Hey John, I appreciate the compliment! Sorry for missing this comment but better late than never I suppose. 4.5 and 114.3 are indeed the same. For an 07 Charger get that bolt pattern but also look for a wheel with 24mm offset and 71.6mm center bore. Thanks for checking out my vid!
@@HorsepowerWarehouse thanks i got some rims that are i think 40 mm offset...and 8 inch wide the back fit but the front hit the steering knuckle....so im looking for some SRT knuckles....plus the rims are 70.6 mm center bore so i have to get them machined.....the machine shop said that wont be a problem....thanks for getting back to me.......keep up the great content..
Thank you for saving another C2. I want one. Please print tour email or phone number. Beautiful work on the fiberglas underneath. Rear diff is NCRS correct.

I realize you are NOT a "how to" channel. However, I want details about the restoration process of the frame in light of the condition it was in. Very disappointing.

The most dreaded rust issue is the birdcage. It puts the frame issue to a lower status.
Does your shop weld embracing plates on the weak areas? Cost for new frame?

Cauldnt help but notice that you also
have a ford bronco and a chevy camaro

How Much Is Something Like This?
Question, the rusted frame from your other video, rework, or aftermarket?
Is the engine orginal? Since the chasis is different can iy be sold as all orginal?

it cant' be a rust bucket...it's mostly fiberglass...You wanna see rust bucket?? come see my mustang....lol
That had to be a near $100k bill to redo that car.
Website?
