I am not sure why they are all different directions. They are all upright in the photobucket account.

car cover that fit my 76, about 20 years old, but just needs a good cleaning, no rips etc. good for outside coverage also. HEAVY construction material with locking cable that goes under car side to side.

I also have 4 sport mirrors for parts or re-hab. I believe there are 2 for each side, but I`d have to verify next time I go out to the garage.

Oldgto,

I could use a driver side mirror if you still have one. I post something to give tomorrow when I'm home.
Merry Christmas Tim

Being so new, I don't have any extra parts, but what I can offer is if someone needs their flag emblems repainted, I would be more than happy to restore the paint part for you. Being a sign painter and pinstriper I could do that!

You are saying that you can repaint the front hood emblem? I have never heard of that. How does the process work? Do you have any before and after shots?

Stingray, on this site alone, I've read of members repainting their flag emblems with testers model enamel paint. I use enamel paint all the time, have the brushes and skill for those who may not. I've been painting for 25 years. I don't have any before and after but if I can get mine off over the weekend I will I will simply repaint the black white and red areas. unfortunately it's all I can offer at this time.

I'm guessing, but I think what Tooonz if offering is painting in the black, white and red sections in the Corvette emblems that are open chrome with paint filled in them, like crossed flags on the 68-72 or the side flags on the non Stingray cars like 77-79s?

I dont have one in front of me, but I think the 80-81 front logos are "sealed" and the colors wouldnt be able to be painted, like the 73-76 circular nose emblem?

Is that right Tooonz ?

Ya, that is what I was thinking. That is why I was confused on how he could paint them. I wasn't even thinking older models wouldn't have sealed emblems.

Oh yeah, we have been filling in those flags with Testor's model paint since the 70s!
