The rod still doesn’t seem to fit, no matter how I try and put it in. I’ve been at it for hours, but how would you suggest shortening the rod?

Hi all, Just bought a nose support rod for my 75’ since it didn’t have one when I bought it. The nose of the car sits slightly lower than the hood so I was thinking that by putting the rod and adding some shims I could raise it to be level. Well, my vette had other plans because as you can see...

Hi guys, hope you’re all staying safe and doing well, Just thought I’d ask if anyone knows any good vette painters in the Montreal/Quebec or Ontario regions, I have a 75 that I need painted. I did most of the labour myself; trim and interior removed, the hood, doors, bumpers and t tops have...

That’s incredible, I feel like that would solve my issue as well. I’m not entirely sure where to check for the bonding strip but next time I get a chance to look at her I’ll do some investigating. Thank you very much!

Hi guys, Getting ready to paint my 75’. As you can see in the pictures, the hood of the car sits too high compared to the passenger side fender. The strange thing is that on the driver side it lines up flush, and the front and rear corners of the hood are pretty flush as well. So it’s really...

Hi guys, The project I picked up has some areas where the previous owner started to scrape off the paint. I’ve never worked with fiberglass, so I’m brand new to this stuff (as you’ll be able to tell with my questions). Firstly, is this red coating the fiberglass? Or the gel coat of the car...

Thanks guys, been working at it all day, finally traced it back to the cigarette lighter which was shorting out the circuit. Thanks for all the help!

I did some more digging and found out that the fuse for CLK LTR keeps blowing, so I’m pretty sure I have a short somewhere. The car is a 1975 non ac

Hi guys, Having trouble tracking down why my clock wire isn’t getting 12v constant. Here are the tests I’ve done to try and track down the issue: There is continuity between the clock wire and cig lighter wire. There is continuity between the clock wire and both battery terminals when the...

Hi guys, I’m in the process of putting the vacuum hose kit I got from Zip into my 1975 without AC. Problem is, there seems to be an actuator missing at the top of my heater box. I attached the vacuum diagram from willcox, which shows an actuator called “air door valve” with a black vacuum line...

Seems like that’s for AC hose routing, I’m really looking for the wiring under the steering column in a non-AC 75’

The connector is located right under the steering column

Hahahaha I’m not a doctor but I think I can safely diagnose myself with the same disorder, I hate having loose ends like this!

Hey guys, Anyone know why this wire might be unplugged? I tried looking at my wiring diagram but couldn’t find anything. Car is a 75’ w/o AC, new project of mine. Thank you!
