Inspection:

rear left tire goes flat

battery drains

heater hoses disconnected

lights dont go up or down

missing front bumper

car has funny smell

Interior seams to be all there, most pulled out by last owner and kept in shed.

all lights, rear rack and emblems pulled but head lights by last owner in shed.

seamed to be ok so I started getting some custom parts:

Rear Pacer Spoiler

Raised Hood

Front bumper

Quite a project there! I would dump all 4 tires and get new ones. NEVER trust old tires! You'll get through it all and have a GREAT looking Vette when you're done! Just don't get frustrated because everything WILL take longer than you think!

Nice project you have there Jason. Document where everything goes as it can get confusing after awhile. Nice to see another '75 being appreciated.

so I decide to pull the stereo and check why it doesn't work and see if a cleaning can get the clock to work.. and while im there I'll repaint the center gauge console.. But.... I found some stuff that stops me in my tracks:

and more....and some person thought bathroom silicone would glue the guage panel together Angry

so now my dash looks like this:

Don't get discouraged! It seems like tons but it's things you would want to do anyway! At least now you know it will be right! Take your time and do it as you can. A project like that doesn't get done overnight!

Wow, I remember when my interior looked like that! One thing leads to another and before you know it, another year has slipped by.

While the dash is apart, I suggest you consider the following:

Test all the vacuum actuators on the heater box.

Inspect the heater box mechanisms for broken parts and binding hinges.

Replace the heater box seals.

Replace all the rubber vacuum hoses.

Seal any misc. holes in the firewall. I used Dynamat.

Look for rust all around the windshield.

Before reassembly, test ALL the gages.

Inspect ALL electrical contacts and grounds. I replaced the wiring harnesses, but still had to clean some old connections to get everything to work.

One last thing. If your car has that heavy cast iron piece above the steering column, then replace it with a later model light weight steel stamping. I bought mine from Contemporary Corvette in Bristol PA.

Most important advice; don't give up! There is lots of help (most of it is friendly) on all the forums. Learn to use the forum "Search" function and you'll find hours of valuable reading.

Could not agree more, my recommedation is also to finish one area before starting on another one, so you have the sense of accomplishment as you go along.

Just looking at the pictures of your interior gives me the willies. I haven't started the interior of my 74. I have decided to do Body and Paint first. I'll be replacing the door panels and carpet/insulation but I hope I don't have to tear into the Dash. So far everything there looks ok, worn but ok. I'll be watching this thread. It will give me inspiration. Right now I have had to stop working on the Corvette. I have a house to remodel.

______________
It has been over a year since I started. I had to quit the project so the car just sat in the garage. I was able to get started again in May 2012. As of July 27 2012 I have done the fiberglass repairs and applied Slick Sand High Build Primer.

I have 3 1969 projects sitting in my shop. Started the first one almost four years ago. Which has been a slow tedious endeavor. Aquiring the second (a convertible that had been in a garage fire) and third ( a coupe, someone else's unfinished project for parts that I eventually refused to rob ) along the way.

I have gone through long periods that I could not find, or make, the time to work on her( the first one). Steadily though, I get the bug and make little bits of headway. At first when I would let it sit, I found it quite depressing. Walking out to the shop and seeing her sitting there gathering dust, and thinking that I would never get her done.

Then I realized that I was looking at a shop full of 40 year old cars. Each of them becoming more and more rare. Realizing that I could get in a hurry and slap it back together, just to finish and drive her.

Or I could take my time, budget my money. Rebuild what needs to be rebuilt, (which means "everything") each step along the way. I chose to rebuild. Mainly so I will be able to just drive her, whenever I want. Instead of having to tear her apart time and time again, to rebuild those little things that I ignored because I got in impatient.

It is still depressing at times when I can't find the time to work on her. Or I lack the money that I need to just buy those little parts that I discover unsalvagable. Not to mention finding them.

Now I am making major steps towards completion of the first car. Most of the little things are done. Or atleast that is what I tell myself. And soon I will be able to drive her on these beautiful fall days. Or atleast that is what I keep telling myself.

And then it is on to project two.

I guess I am just saying, Take your time. Be meticulous. Don't get discouraged. It will be well worth it in the end. Atleast, that is what I keep telling myself.

Michael.

Hey, I saw your pics of your work on your 75 and became a member. I also have a 75 that I have been doing work to, and that takes time and money.I have to do the heater core too,but I don't have air conditioning. I just found a rear fiberglass bumper that a guy bought about 20 years back and never put on. I got a good deal $100.00, but to get it back over the border and the size of the box, it cost me over double for the shipping. You seem to be going at a good pace and i'll keep staying in tune, watching how it's going. GOOD JOB

Hey Jason...I'm loving those side pipes...Great progress! Still working on mine also...getting there slowly but surely. I still couldn't find a good defroster vent grill online....so keep yours and salvage if at ALL possible! I can't find a reproduction or use part anywhere.

I'm working on the drivers side dash and steering column now...finally got my carpet in and trying to decide if I want to buy new door panels at an ungodly amount a piece. Keep posting brother...a bunch of us out here are working along with ya! More money, more time, more toys...sorry...that was my wish list! Best wishes! Rick

well I finally got the heater core in, replaced the windshield washer bottle, it had leaks

replaced motor mounts with solid mounts, replaced the tranny mount with poly.

Installed passanger side headers, made new AC bracket to go over the headers.

body mounts should be here in a few days. I'm still redoing the insulation on the firewall

I pulled the column out today.
