From FOAM FILLED to FULLY RESTORED!?!?! 1966 Corvette C2 Restoration Hot Rod Shop

[@dgiorgi1725]

Yeah I remember “the foam car” who could forget all that foam and the owner must have been sick when you found out all about it... beautiful job and that paint is perfect. When I am ready to buy a C2 it will definitely be one of yours, no surprises and worth EVERY PENNY knowing what you really have.

I’m speechless; great work 👍🏽

That's my Boy!

Hey there Junior, That '66 is a long way from the foam-filled place it started. Very nice job on that! ... and what!!!! ... 4-4-2 !!! Please do part of a video on this!! Take care, Dan

[@randy3y]

Nice stuff - visited that store and shop back in January on a rainy day. Somehow got out of there without buying another car!

[@primozkrajcar4144]

Great craftsmanship! I would love to bring my 71 to you to get the chasis in order and help you and the team to work on those beautifull Corvettes.

Hello again Junior. I'm writing from Barcelona. I love your videos. I've owned two1982 corvettes. The passion you have for rebuilding vettes is like an artist who loves their art. Would it be possible to talk about a C3 that will be built by putting together several donor C3 parts in order to arrive at a lower price? I would pay for it gradually as you gradually put the puzzle together. Then, finally, I would come see your shop personally and arrange for a shipment to Spain. Thanks, Steve Howard

[@StevenZimmerman1]

Junior, simply stunning - you've done another outstanding restoration-plus on the blue '66 ! While I've been seeking a driver's C2, I was curious on what this vehicle co$t out the door ? if you can say. Thank you always, Steven

[@yodaknows1977]

Thanks to Dad for all the free tows to and from lol

[@skits6287]

Nassau blue has to be my favorite color, the car came out so awesome! The owner will be so proud of it for years to come! Great work as always to you and your team!

[@jessemarinjr6374]

[@mikedata-r3n]

Such a great channel, you guys do amazing work and I just can't understand why you don't have 100k subscribers!!!

[@bengone3349]

Junior, every car sitting in your shop is a beauty. The '66 "Foam Car" is a great example, but I saw something that, in my opinion should have been done better. The A/C lines running over the top of the battery will almost make battery removal impossible. I speak from experience since I have owned my '67 for 54 yrs. It's bad enough without A/C, but your plumbing is a headache waiting to happen. I can only assume the owner will pay dearly to replace that battery.

[@thereissomecoolstuff]

Do you guys have any cars you sell? Your work is excellent.

[@yodaknows1977]

Yes working on a 63 split fulie. 65 365 hp convertible 66 coupe 67 coupe all will be coming late fall or winter

[@evannastone498]

You rock!

[@tropicthndr]

Can’t fathom how these C2 vettes are so expensive when all the parts are readily available everywhere, and they’re one of the easiest cars to work on.

[@yodaknows1977]

Have you bought them ? 2800 for bumpers that are GM

[@mannynb2351]

wow....

[@stevehoward1106]

Hello! Where is your shop located? I'm an American living in Spain. I want another Corvette (I've owned 2). I'd like to start a conversation buying, renovating and shipping a C3 to Spain.

[@johnjaeger287]

I've never heard a good answer to my often asked question about restored C2 Corvettes...why does the rear of this restored '66 Roadster sit so high? New spring? Rearced old spring? Incorrectly mounted? Many other times it's the front sitting high.

[@jameswilkins288]

Got it, what would happen if the block wasn’t drilled and taped for power steering

[@bengone3349]

The Burgeon box bolts to the frame, and the pump and bracket bolt to the engine mount and two bolts to the front of the block. These two holes are always cast/threaded.

[@yodaknows1977]

all 327s the same

[@billspina]

What happened to Junior?

[@jameswilkins288]

quick ? what do you do when a Corvette comes in with no power steering but the customer wants power steering but want it to look stock

[@bengone3349]

Junior would go to his parts source and get original GM parts and install them...simple!

[@southernbreeze3278]

was it supposed to float?

[@LittleMike6]

Can you share what this restoration cost?

[@S2NAZ]

Beautiful resto, but… I don’t understand why the back end is so jacked up???

[@bengone3349]

It takes a few miles of driving for the springs, front and back to settle into a more relaxed position.

[@S2NAZ]

@@bengone3349 ahhhh I see. Well then, time to put on some miles! 😁👍🏻

[@randystrausborger8914]

Why does rear set so high?
