First let me say that I know everyone east of the Miss. has been getting pounded this year. I lived in WI., MI. and OH., for the first 50+ years of my life so I know what you're going through. All I can say on this end of the country, winter was nada and we're having the best spring in the five years I've lived here. My winter projects have included a lot of work out in the garage, fertilizing the lawn and mowing. Supposed to be almost 70 tomorrow !!
So now on to the serious stuff - my Corvette projects so far this year:
1. New radiator in January - wow what a difference.
2. Orig. carb rebuild and dist. timing tune - huge difference x 2.
3. Correct/date coded alternator rebuilt and installed a few weeks ago.
4. Just installed a correct/date coded rebuilt starter this week.
5. The rebuild of my original water pump is done and should be on it's way back.
6. When the original water pump is back in, then it's time for all those fancy GM belts, hoses etc.
On a side note, while I was replacing front sway bar bushings and rear leaf spring cushions, I verified I still have the original, date coded shocks. Hmmmm, 43 year old shocks, pretty good shape, no leaks and they still ride great - but their 43 years old !!!!
