FYI. I found a restoration shop did the alignment 89 bucks 1.5 hours. I trailered it there . I provided a new stainless set of shins and cotter pins. Seems to hold the road alright. I’ll watch the tires for unusual wear.

Then you can compare what you get as measurements vs what the shop measured. Once you feel confident you get the same measurements repeatable its down hill from there.

C3 alignment in Louisiana
Hi Croaker!
Been out of town and sorry I am just now seeing your message.
Next time I need a C3 alignment, I am going to take it to Ross Downing in Hammond. Ross Downing supports 3 or 4 Corvette clubs in Louisiana and sells a lot of Corvettes. Also there is a great guy there I think his name is Darrell Blanchard (sp?) that is a vintage Corvette guru and separately runs his own speed/ speciality Corvette shop and I am certain he can do a super job aligning front and rear C3. Great post of info here (thanks cagotzmann!), and me myself I will print out this and align it best I can and then take it to Blanchard.
Hope this helps!
BTW, great looking Corvette, what color: flame red? what brand?
