Mark's Corvette WebsiteHi guys, I haven't added anything recently as I no longer have the 59 but I'm still around so you can still email me for any info re mine or any C1 info.

This is the 59 on a recent cruise around my local area.
This is the 59 some time ago. I started with a reasonably sound car with an excelent chassis and only a few repairs which were mainly on the drivers side front fender.
It still needed to have everything restored which I am doing in a progressive process.
I have just about finished everything but as with most classic cars you never quite finish them as there is always another part that can be improved or added.
this is the 59 on Easter Sunday the day after the Brisbane 2001 show and shine just before I pulled the motor.
This is my son Richie, giving me a hand with the dissasembly.
I read an article in Corvette Fever that told of how you could strip the paint off a corvette in a day using a razor blade. I thought that is was a joke but that is just how I did it. The car was painted in some sort of enamel and it stripped quite easily using this method but it had some minor repairs that had a differnt type of paint that this method didn't work.
