Looks like you bought it brand new! Oh Iove it!

Did you have any trouble with the Wilwood brake lines being long enough to reach the brake junction blocks on the frame? I have a C3 and the included brake lines didn’t reach the brake junction blocks by the trailing arms. Trying to figure out a solution.

Thanks for the video and tips. I’m about to paint my firewall and clean the transmission tunnel. Any tips on cleaning that area? Flat black spray paint? I hope you film the installation of the body on the frame I haven’t found any videos showing installation they are all removal. I finished my suspension and have a rolling chassis thanks to your ridetech videos!

This step of adding the foil/insulation should definitely make the passenger compartment of your car more comfortable and quieter. The installation in the tunnel looks really clean and "factory like". Also, the flat black paint that you shot the engine compartment and underbody with looks fantastic too. The car is really coming together nicely. I can't wait to see the body and frame come back together. I'll be waiting anxiously for that video.

Just so enjoyable to watch. A beautiful job and something functional to take pride in and enjoy. 👍👍. Ray

Very nice and clean installation

Saving this video for sure! This is the best one out there regarding this procedure. Thanks!

Looking good, my 72 is the same color. I like your air box, I may have a go at making something similar. I am actually considering taking 2 stock air filter boxes, cutting them up and making one longer one.

❤❤❤ lovely, lovely! Thankyou! 👍👍

Hello Dick, Thank you for the interesting video. I have a 1964 C2 Convertible in very good condition, but the frame needs to be sandblasted and either painted or powder coated. I am a technician and have worked on many classic cars, but I have never done a frame-off restoration on a Corvette. It would be helpful if you could give me an estimate of how many hours it will take to remove and install the frame. Greetings from Austria!

She’s beautiful.

What would no upshift be ?

I Learned to drive in a 55 T-Bird. My father had a custom oversized radiator in it. I remember cruising at 115 with the top down. She had long legs. Thanks for sharing your adventure with your T-Bird. I always loved the art deco interior.

Beautiful restoration, but a question I have and I may be wrong but I thought 240z came with a solid 1 piece taillight garnish and 280z came with a 3 piece tail light garnish or is it an after market addition?

I actually need these springs. Where did you get them ? Great video.

Love that blue!

those tails are a huge improvement, i may have to make a set of my own for my Z

Nice work sir!

Dick Shaw and Mid-Year Mitch, 2 great choices for Corvette content. Both good people, both willing to pass how-to information and help us little guys out. Thanks for the great video looks scary. Stay safe.

Thanks all great ideas.

Thank you. This will be helpful, im currently working on a 260 and the lock mechanisms isnt working right. You gotta use the key to unlock the doors and open the handle at the same time.

Do you think its possible to put the stainless trim in after installing the windscreen?

Hello..I have a 62 Galaxie with a 390 and cruiseomatic. I smelled burning feom the transmission and i couldnt change gears when trying to park. I sat in traffic for a while.ao it got hot.

Excellent, sir. Well done! I am happy not see fender flares on this Z. It looks classy and sharp. Thank you for keeping it original. Keep 'em on the road 🤘

Thank you for this! What is the best way to remove old windshield? Push out using your feet around the edge lol?

That turned out really nice. A truck to be proud of

I really like the color of satin black, but what about durability for undercoating?

A man of few words and enormous tallent.

Nice work!

Beautiful, great work!

Thanks Dick , you have good taste in what looks good. This will be a great corvette to ride around up 66.

Looking great!

Nicely done thanks for the helpful video.

Is it still for sale

excellent modification

Dick- you did a masterful job of fabricating the exhaust for your Corvette. I was wondering if you considered an X-pipe or an H-pipe in the system. I have a C5 with the LS1 and Chevy used an H-pipe supposedly to tune the exhaust drone out of the system. I’ve also heard that the crossover pipes equalize pressure between cylinder banks which improves performance. Just found your channel and I love it. You are a master craftsman and truly a soon all trades automotive.

Does it run better with airbox ?

My winter project. Thanks for the preview of what is to come.

BAck in the day, we ( Auto Glass shop) used the yellow WS adhesive and after applying it, we would stick the Weatherstrip against it then pull it away and let it set up for a few minutes or longer, then attach the weatherstrip.... It seemed to stick well that way....

Allright, a Dick Shaw video..... let me get my coffee......

Hard to find any videos of transmission swaps to 700r4 into a c2 corvette what clearance problems?

Question, did you ever do video showing you put body to see how it fit on the frame with new transmission and engine to see if you had transmission clearance on transmission tunnel and engine???

Thanks, the auto industry has improved in this area lots of pin clips and 2 sided tape now a days. It's great to see the old school way done right.

Great video! You just save me a lot of $! Been searching how to add parking break to my Fast track Roadster Shop Chassis Keep up the good work!

I understand you probably want to keep the car as true to it's original form as possible, but getting a radiator with side tanks instead of top/bottom tanks will allow the water more time in the radiator, thus making it cooler when it exits. On the other hand, I have a rad with side tanks in my 429-equipped 64 Fairlane, and it still overheats at lights/in traffic (like your Tbird does), so maybe it would be a pointless change after all. :) I'm about to install a pusher version of the flex-a-lite on my car because I don't enough room to mount a puller fan along with the requisite shroud.

Great video! Appreciate the details as well. My 65 needs the same flairs removed. Question? Where did you buy the flair repair sections? Thank you

The lights look awesome on the car, you got good taste on how to do a car. Thanks for posting.🐞

Is this similar to the strategy used on the 240?

Hey! You wore gloves. At first I thought OH NO, but as I watched it got better and better. Good work!

Thanks Dick, very cool idea and turned out great.
