How to Rebuild Corvette Rolling Chassis 1963-1982
  Second- and third-generation Corvettes may well be the stuff of collector's dreams—but if you're an owner or enthusiast who plans to drive your dream car, this guide to repairing and rebuilding will put you and your 'Vette on the road.
With step-by-step text and photographs, author George McNicholl documents the complete rebuilding of four Corvettes—1965 and 1967 convertibles and 1969 and 1972 coupes—putting the process within reach of any do-it-yourself mechanic.
McNicholl's focus is on rebuilding the second- and third-generation Corvette rolling chassis for daily use, with clear and concise information on engines, transmissions, differentials, frames, front suspensions, brakes, wheels, and fuel, exhaust, and cooling systems for models from 1963 to 1982.
