LOL I've been trying to give her the hint to buy parts fo rit like t-top seals and now por15 save my money, maybe I can talk her into a gallon of por 15 so that way I can do her tiny floors, and do my entire frame, truck whatever with the rest HAHA

That's what I'm talking about....as long as she sees it going on her toy it's a non issue. And when your truck frame is all shiny and black and questions are asked you can reply it's left overs from the Vette.

Use rust converter before the POR 15.

I always wanted a 4x4 Vet...

First thing is first test the brakes on the car. The floating calipers they use are notorious for leaking, the good aftermarket replacements have either orings or lip seals to help prevents this. I have also been told you need to step on the brakes about once a week to keep the fluid from leaking. I didnt do this to mine and just replaced the front calipers this summer, I had problems with the brake pedal going soft as you drove it (another symptom).

Here are the turbines on mine...been on it since my brother first bought it in '91 at least.

They're pretty easy to reseal. I did all 4 on my 79. Delco kits were $16 a piece for the rear, and $21 for the front.

Mine has the 82 Collector Edition wheels on it. They were already on it when I bought it, back in 95.

Those are the widest tires I can fit under there without rubbing or sticking out too far, still not enough to stop them from blowing into smoke though, lol.

I replaced mine with calipers from Vette brake and performance.

Shop is not big enough for all those red Chevys and massive tool boxes. If you don't upgrade to bigger shop I'll take one of those tool chests off ya bro.

Nice ride!

I often wonder if these C3's interiors were made from sub standard materials. Like almost every one I've ever seen, no matter low miles and/or very well maintained they always have thrashed interiors including the door and glass rubber.
Hmmm.

 

[Swims350]

that was the first thing I did was hit the brakes she's nice and firm, I figured they'd be spongy because of who knows how old they are, I know on the s10 they were all new.

I love a Vette!
