I am restoring a 1968 corvette and have it stripped completely to the fame. Does anyone have a gussets location diagram where they all go or could tell me where to put them and where not to put them. I know some will interfere with the steering but where else.
Also besides prep work before I paint is there anything else I have to do to the frame. Some said I should weld over the factory welds to make it stronger. Any more advise?

Re: the gussets, I'll have to do some research to see what I can find.

Re: frame welds, Back in my boy racer days, I read that one could completely weld the frame in between the factory welds which essentially gives you a continous weld.

 

Will add the rest tomorrow. I have a love/hate relationship w/ my scanner plus for some reason I can't add pics on my PC, so have to transfer to laptop to add to post.

 

Here's the last one as there is a limit of five. This comes from the Chevrolet Power 2nd edition book circa 1976.

Hope this helps.

 

Thanks for the help I am putting them on this weekend

 

Show us some pics when you have some time.
