1968 Corvette Bird Cage Replacement

[Chuck R.]

I am in the process of purchasing a 1968 basket case coupe that has been left to the elements under a tarp. The biggest worry I have is the "Bird Cage". One windshield pillar has been barely rough welded, and the other was attempted, and is now completly severed. I fear that the whole bird cage may be gone. I'm not afraid to dig in and do what needs to be done, but not if it's going to cost a bigillion dollars. Are there parts out there other than clips for this type of repair? I would appreciate any type of feed back Either by phone or mail (231, Alpine Meadows Road, Porter Corners New York 12804). Thanks for your feed back. Chuck Rice

Chuck,

Caledonia Classics in Belding, Michigan makes a LOT of repair pieces for the bird cage. I don't have the # handy, as I haven't unpacked the new catalog yet after getting back from Bloomington, but they advertuse frequently in the magazines.
