The votes are in and a full matching set of tires have been ordered. An exhaustive search of the Internet was performed to make sure we bought the widest tire possible without creating clearance issues. We ended up with 225-60-15 BF Goodrich tires with raised white letters. They have a good classic profile and the tread design is appropriate for our 63 Corvette. The set is on order and we expect them in a few days.
VALANCE
Ty has been rebuilding our rear valance, the piece that fits under the rear bumpers. The exhaust holes are being blocked off because we don't need them with side exhaust. There are also missing tabs and weak spots that are being corrected. Here are a couple photos of this in process effort.
B PILLAR
When we rebuilt the B pillars last year we has to remove the fiberglass panels that covered the pillars. We are now reinstalling these panels.
The fiberglass panel was riveted into place and duct tape was used to protect the drip rail shoe.
Double click on the photo to see how the fiberglass matches the shoe.
Watch for our new Torq-Thrust D wheels and BF Goodrich tires.
