Kenmojr Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 What a fine 57. Big fan of the tri-5 Chevys. When I first purchased my 1960 Corvette in 1983 one of the first things I did was swap on the single cylinder master cylinder for a dual master cylinder. 15 years later I converted the front drum brakes to disc brakes via a kit from ECI Brake https://www.ecihotrodbrakes.com/ who assured me I did not need to add a power booster. The good folks who post on the C1/C2 part of the CorvetteForum.com also agreed. Cheers from Nova Scotia.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the feedback as well as the interesting details regarding the brake upgrade and power booster (or lack thereof) as it related to your '60 Vette. Cheers, Ken, and happy modeling!

TransAmMike Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Missed this one Mike. As a huge '57 Chevy fan gotta say this is a beauty. I did the exact paint job on my last 2 builds (not '57's) and got 2 different shades for some reason. Anyway, great job, I really like it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
