Rapid progress is being made on the 1973 Corvette. Ed has just about wrapped up this project. The customer has a few more concerns that we have to address such as the speedometer and odometer not being correct and a possible fluid leak from the engine compartment, but those issues will have to wait to be addressed when the weather breaks and we can test drive the vehicle.

The 1960 Corvette Barn Car is ready for base coat! Al, Tyler, and Corey have wet sanded the entire body and the removable panels. First they mounted all of the removable panels within the paint booth and got them painted with both base coat and clear coat. They have now moved the car into the paint booth and are masking it off in preparation for base and clear coating the entire body.

Progress is moving nicely on the 1973 Corvette for an interior refresh. The seats covers have been installed and they look fantastic! Ed has completely disassembled the steering column and discovered that it was in reasonably good shape. He cleaned it up, sandblasted, primed and painted the column before starting to reassemble. He replaced the bearings and the ignition lock cylinder due to a key buzzer issue.

The 1965 Corvette is finally ready for primer. Corey has already coated the doors in primer, but the next order of business is to get the vehicle in to the paint booth to coat the entire body in primer so they can block sand.

Josh is dismounting the tires from the 1976 Corvette so he can refinish the wheels. First he will clean them with a mild soap to break up the grime and grease, then he will sandblast the rust and old paint off. Followed by a liberal coating of primer and finally rally wheel paint.

The body has been mounted on the 1960 Corvette. Previously, the guys were building the new rolling chassis by getting all of the suspension hung and all of the new fuel and brake lines ran. The engine came back from being rebuilt and they quickly got all of the accessory brackets and ignition system installed, along with a new clutch. Check out the video below to watch the body lowered onto the chassis.

The 1965 Corvette is getting closer and closer to the paint booth. The guys have now rolled the vehicle into the paint room where they are continuing to fill and sand the body. They have started to mount the bumpers so they can insure that they will fit properly and flush to the body.

Who said a Corvette doesn’t have a backseat?

Tyler and Corey have started to attack the other 1960 Corvette under the roof. If you remember, we have put this car in primer once, block sanded, and primer again. Now comes the final primer sanding before we lay down the base coat of red and clear coat.

Ed has started to disassemble the 1973 Corvette interior. All of the parts have arrived for this job and it is GO TIME. First Ed is removing all of the old interior starting with the center consoles, then the dash, followed by the carpet. After everything is removed, he will go through all of the saved pieces. Those saved pieces will be cleaned and re-dyed Dark Saddle.

Lastly, the guys found a GM Parts statue while going through our used parts warehouse.
Of course, they used the opportunity to poke fun at me.

“Looks just like you”, they said.

The 1960 is coming along nicely. The guys have gotten the rolling chassis done, and have received the engine from the re-builder. Josh is assembling the engine by installing all of the accessory brackets, ignition components and exhaust manifolds. Once they have the engine ready, they will set it into the new chassis along with the transmission. Finally when that is done, we will remount the body to the chassis and the boys will take over to fill and sand the body.

The body work continues on the 1965. The guys have been working very hard on this one. Making sure all the gaps and jams are even and perfect. Not long now until the guys roll her into the paint booth for the first coat of primer. As you can see, this one is getting a lot of extra love.

Here is some progress on the 1977 Corvette, which is being slowly restored for a good customer of ours. Previously, we had repainted the entire car and now we are starting to reassemble the interior and replace what is needed. The customer has requested that we have the windows tinted and install a newer stereo with a CD player.
