    Question New wiring question

    Seems like all I do lately is ask questions. My 65 Vette has been in storage for a million years with no engine in it. Now that I have it back home and trying to get it running again I see things about it that I have forgotten where they go. Case in point; Stock wiring harness... I have two...

    Featured Who has had their Vette the longest?

    I bought my 65 in 1982 as a basket case in 1,000,000 pieces, more or less. I have only driven it a couple of times before I tore it down for the second time to rebuild it. Not finished yet.

    Question New member with an odd question about a vin on a 65 Vette

    Thanks. There is a lot on this car that has made me realize its made up of more than one car. When I had the body off, I found out that it was hit both in the rear and the front at some time. It is probably a rebuilt wreck made up with what could be found. I guess it will never be a numbers...

    Question C2 headlight buckets

    All you guys on this board have helped me a whole lot. I am grateful for each one of you. My Vette used to have one of those old shark nose front end assemblies that eliminated all the neat retractable headlights and I am trying to piece it all back as original as I can. Almost there.

    Question C2 headlight buckets

    Thank you very much XFIRE82, you have done much more than one would expect. Very helpful. I think I will buy a set of generic GM "rings" or "buckets" and give them a try. Again, I appreciate all the trouble you went to.:thumbs:

    Question C2 headlight buckets

    Thanks, I appreciate the information. I am hoping that if I buy a complete set of four off of a GM vehicle that they will work. There is a set of 4 on Ebay now that I am considering

    Question C2 headlight buckets

    Hey, thanks man. I really do appreciate it. There is no great hurry, I still have some more work to do on the car, hope to have it going in a few weeks. Parts for old American cars are hard to find used around here. All the salvage yards are full of late models.

    Question C2 headlight buckets

    No, not those "capsules" that hold the whole shebang. I mean those black buckets that the bulb fits into. I have everything else. All the gm cars with 4 headlights that have separate "buckets" look like they would fit into the headlight assembly that you are showing. I just want to see if anyone...

    Question C2 headlight buckets

    Will any GM small headlight bucket work in the 63-67 Corvette headlight capsule as long as its from a 4 headlight car? They all look the same.

    Question Wheel interchange

    Thanks for all the input. I guess I will have to go with 15X7s

    Question Wheel interchange

    I thought that the design specs on the rear end of a C2 and a C3 were the same. I know the 72 I used to own looked exactly like my 65 chassis. I know that the fender lip is too narrow but the backspace is what I was wondering about.

    Question Wheel interchange

    Will 1972 , 8 inch ralley wheels fit the wheel wells and clear the rear trailing arms on a 1965 Corvette?

    Question Difference in 1967 and 1965 seats

    Thanks guys. I knew about the release lever. If I use the 65 plastic seat backs I guess the lever on the 67 seat back would be irrelevant. I appreciate the help.
