Intro
Hi everyone. Mike from San Luis Obispo Ca. I have a ton of questions but am just going to monitor for a few days to get the feel for proper etiquette since I am new to the forum. I have any early model 63 coupe that is in pretty fair shape that has been in the family for many many years.

Welcome aboard. Photos are the best way to please this crowd. There is a wealth of knowledge on this forum. Some seem to be cranky lately and others are just outright snarky, but don’t let it bother you. I like to think they all mean well in their own way. Tell us more about the car and add plenty of photos.

Do you have:
... a 1963 Corvette Owner's Manual?
... a 1963 Corvette Shop Manual?
...a 1963 Corvette AIM (Assembly Instruction Manual)?
... the 1963 Corvette Vehicle Information Package, which is a free download from the GM Heritage Web site.
There's other documentation that's nice to have, but the above will get you started.

Welcome aboard! Nice to see another '63 owner in our midst. There are many here, and always room for more. As others have commented, although we have recently lost a few members who had vast knowledge about these old cars, there are still many here whose knowledge and experience are irreplaceable.
If you don't already have the books that were recommended by SWC Duke, give some thought to acquiring them. He's among the brain trust here, and can always be counted on to provide great advice.
Live well,
