Default Proper Stance For a C3

This to me is the most common - and proper stance for a good 'ol Vette ! LOL !

Also, notice where someone hit me in a parking lot behind the rear wheel ? They drove off without even leaving a note...what is a good combo of cheap but decent repair for that ???

I've got her in the air to start rebuilding the rear suspension....I'll be posting LOT'S of pictures along the way... When the rear is done, I'm turning her around and pulling the engine (why do some people call them "motors"....they're engines aren't they ?..whatever ! LOL !)

You pull a motor, but you build an engine !!!

Be careful when you start a project like this. Two years ago I started to rebuild the rear suspension but the body came off halfway through. I think the body on these cars is lighter than air and sometimes lifts off without the owner really expecting or planning for it.
