1962 Vettemous Reserectous

Greetings Men (or any other gender/life form present)

With the 507 well under way, an additional garage port and shop extension to build, and a Mercedes 280SL coming in shortly, with all this free time I decided to take in a 1962 Vette that needs a mechanical restoration to get back on the road. This is for a friend's Boss's widow and this is her husband's car.

Being a Mopar guy, I know a lot about Corvettes so this should be an easy undertaking. It's an original car and I'm planning on keeping it that way

One can see there's lots of untouched things on it....





The original Vortec V8 is still in place. This is the rare super low rise intake. So low no carburetor can be seen! Original long tube headers still have the factory rust on them as well. I know!! What.... Are the chances?!



Factory 25F option code, Enhanced Moon-Ride Gravity Detractorators", are still in place on the front springs too! Uber rare for this year. I believe a one year option only, but I'll let the Tim & Tim show confirm that.



So as I dive into this I'll update post haste. No time frame on this to get done but we all know how that goes with my other builds.

Enjoy the pics!

Cheers
Dave
