Restoring an older 68 corvette roadster

[kymdlr]

I also love restoring glue bombs. The motor looks amazing and I 2nd the idea that you could have left the valve covers off and displayed it alone! I’m for sure going to try that on a build .thanks for sharing the tip with the sewing buttons with us.

I think I’m going to build an engine on a stand and display it next to the car, in a cutaway form, or partially assembled. I wanted to leave one of the heads removable but there just isn’t a whole lot of room to pull it off and on, but I think an engine on a stand would look better, I’m thinking of doing the L88 and L71, the AMT 57 corvette street machine has a really nice set of big block heads with rockers molded in them.
