Hello from Illinois
Hi- I am new to this forum, and new to Corvettes. I currently have
a 1994 and a 1975 vette. The 94 is in drivable shape and has a few issues. The 1975 is a project car for sure.
I bought the 75 and trailered it home. One of the first things I did
(mistake??) was to have a windshield put in as it didnt have one.
It had a real good windshield frame with no rust but all trim was
removed from this area. I think I may have made a mistake on having
the windshield put in too early. I am now trying to put the chrome trim
back on and found that there are a few screws in the front which hold
on these corners. I can't really get at these screws to put them in. :-(
Also the T shaped piece of trim - Doesn't seem to fit properly on the front-
So... members.... comments?
