Vintage Corvette's - Jay Leno's Garage

[Roy V.]

I posted a video in another thread about '63 corvette's, while not Germaine to that thread, I thought some of you would like to watch this video I came across, it's a little dated, about 2 years old, but still interesting. There might be a couple of errors during the course of the conversation, see if you can pick them out. The one that was apparent to me was that the knock-off wheels were a regular production option in 1963, I always thought that due to porosity issues, they were not made available until 1964.
if you have 18 or so minutes to spare, it's a interesting video to watch.

Nice video, I have always liked Leno. Some errors that I noticed was the rated hp for a 53, KOs on 63s and the "the speedo goes to 150" on the 63s.

Mark. That is a cool video. I like what Jay said about the simplicity of carburetors and the average person being able to work on them. Back in the 60's, my young friends and I were always rebuilding carburetors. At the time, the rebuild kits were inexpensive.
