    Re-attaching Front Cowl

    Hi Scott, they haven't told me anything regarding a missing body mount so I'm not entirely sure but thanks for bringing that up. I completely missed it.

    Re-attaching Front Cowl

    I took my 71 corvette to a restoration company to get some work done because it needed some MAJOR TLC. They took off the front cowl, front fenders, and everything. They are in the process of attaching the front cowl, front fenders back to the main car body but I just received an invoice of...

    Hood Support Extension Length

    That 11" is from the middle bolt to the metal plate where it bolts onto the hood? the distance shown in this picture? Also, if it wouldn't be too much trouble, could you measure the distance from the front of the hood to the bolt support holes? the distance for my hood is roughly 14 inches. If...

    Hood Support Extension Length

    Hi, Does anyone know the extension length for the 72-73 scissor hood support? I am looking for the length from the middle bolt, to the metal plate where it bolts onto the hood when it is fully extended. I am trying to see if it will fit in my corvette and will hold my hood up. Any help you...

    Hood Support

    I bought a used 1971 hood to put on my corvette. I also bought a new 1971 hood support to pair with the hood, but the support appears to be too long.

    Radiator Upgrade

    I looked into the M-4208B, and I found the exact same part on Corvette depot https://www.corvettedepot.ca/cooling/core-support/radiator-core-support/corvette-radiator-support-26-5-core-1969-1972 but on there it says that this support is for copper radiators only.

    Radiator Upgrade

    Hi Luke, This does reassure me, so thank you. For the aluminum radiator support, I meant a radiator support that would work with an aluminum radiator. Just from looking online at various suppliers, I found that there are radiator supports that work for only copper radiators. The radiator support...

    Radiator Upgrade

    Thanks for the information. If it's only the cushion/supports that are different, then that shouldn't be too big of a problem. I'm just worried about the spacing. A lot of the aluminum radiator supports I found don't have their dimensions listed, and I'm removing a 27" core radiator support so...

    Radiator Upgrade

    My radiator support is completely rusted, and my radiator is pretty beat up so I am looking to replace both of them. Originally, my 71 vette had a 27.5" core support but I want to replace it with aluminum support since I'm thinking of putting in a DeWitts Direct Fit Aluminum radiator. Is the...

    I appreciate the insight. I've ordered something from Santos, and he says that it's been shipped to my place in Edmonton. I'm just waiting to see if it comes and if it's in good condition.

    Caledon Corvette Parts

    I tried contacting the Red Deer guy multiple times but he hasn't gotten back to me so I'm assuming he doesn't want to do business.
