So I spent the weekend gutting my WS6 parts car. I'm getting everything drivetrain related sans the rearend. The 6 speed is going in my Vette the rest will reside in the Studebaker.
Who says you can't do things like this with a 4 post lift. :mrgreen: Here's the car. It got rearended and bent the frame, shame too it was a nice car. Alot of the parts have been swapped to his new driver.

Looks like good progress! Always nice when you can just cut out the pieces that are in the way! Shame about a nice car getting smashed up, though.

Yea not having to worry about putting it back together makes it easier. I still have some wiring to get out of the car and the center console. The rest will be parted out. |

I am moving this to Corvette Chat, unless otherwise noted.
A word of caution, have someone go over that T56. They have an alarming tendency to blow up if abused. |

Just an FYI, lots of C3 guys use the rear seat belts out of those. You could probably make some decent money off of them, assuming they're still there and in decent shape.

Thanks for the heads up on the trans Bogus, I'll do that before I put it in the Vette.
Trae, I did not know that. The interior is perfect other than the drivers seat, I'll post them for sale for C-3 guys too. |
