Great video Mike. The C3 community needs more videos like this.

Fun fact: even after nearly 60 years of overall Corvette production, the C3 still holds the record for the longest Corvette production run, clocking in at an astonishing 14 years.

Owning a Corvette will teach you patience. Thank you for your willingness to share and create this footage.

Great tutorial Mike, My 74 Needs to have this job performed, but I just don't have the courage to do it

Great video! Though as an airframer who worked with composites, seeing you take the wire brush to the fiberglass hurt. Look into nylon abrasive brushes if you really need to use one, they work as good as a wire brush (maybe a hair slower), but are a bit less aggressive, and less likely to tear into the fiberglass.

Thank you. It was uh... riveting. 😎

Very instructive, thanks

Just got a very used set off eBay to replace the one piece epoxy lid for a 79 I inherited. Need a full restore of them.

Hey, is it necessary to take of the trim, before installing the weatherstripping?
