Restoration of 1966 corvette 427

Lifting the 64 corvette body off the frame

Well , stopped by Tims' Shop and they were puling the 64 off the frame so here are some shots of the process . This is kind of a backwards build . We all did the body and interior first the the engine compartment > Well now the gentleman decided to do the frame . I cut and fit the complete one piece front end on this one and set the headlight buckets in .. Cut in a new rear tailight section and maybe a rear finder . I'm not sure about the fender . I'ts been a while . Tim had a couple of buddies stop buy to help him cover the corners of the 64 body . Mike and Bob were a lot of help !Way to go Go Mikey !!

We just made a little body hauler out of a old boat trailor . Works great ! Guys are rolling on this one . Mike and Uncle Pat broke down the frame the next day and when i stopped by yesterday it was alll already sandblasted and being primered ! Geg ,just working from noon had half the grindng on the body done despite faulty equipment . The grinder worked when it wanted to . Mr organisation Mike was already on the parts order and had most of the parts coming . Good job Mikey . Now mikey if you want me to make you a star out in cyber world you have to let me show your setbacks ( F%@# UPs ) HA, HA !

More pictures of this and a couple real special builds coming soon ........................................................Grover

We did this chevelle first as it was a little bigger .Going to be a nice looken car , for sure . Black vinal to ,black interior .No monies spared on the engine rebuild .As we were dropping the body to the vette the gentleman that ownes the chevele came driven in in that 79 Z28 we put that 2002 vette motor in and man does that sound wicked !! Was trying to take some video of it with my daughters camera but screwed it up .I think it looks great up against the 64 red vette.
