Is there any Old Corvette Guys here?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

RON WOODGEARD · 02-03-2003, 05:00 PM

In my moving cleaning, I found an Old front engine mount for an Early VETTE, It's the one that bolts to the front of the engine and then the water pump bolts on to retain it.

My question being, What are they worth? Anything?

I used to use them when I was doing chevy engine installations into something besides Chevies, I've had this one for at least 30 years. (longer then some of you are old

)

I also came across a set of POLY, Body mount bushings and 2" Body spacers That I'll put on E-bay.

Is it a new one or just left over? Is there any rust around the water pump holes where the gasket
fits on both sides snd is it chrome!
Let me know.
Thanks
Bob

BOB,

It's not new, It's "left over". It's not Chromed, And there is no rust, except Totally surface, And VERY little of that.

Sorry the pictures are so bad, My camera sucks.

Someone told me it could be the memory card going bad.

While we're on the Corvette topic I also have a set of 58 Corvette aluminum signature valve covers I need to get rid of any takers?

RON WOODGEARD · 02-03-2003, 11:58 PM

I have the same style valve covers on my 283 that is going into my truck. The only downside to them is you have to run the stock manifold, as I've yet to see a new aluminum manifold with a filler neck on it. I'll get a pic up in a min. Did these ever come on 283's?

Well Ron, I hate to put a price to them but ive been told they are worth up to 150 bucks. What I really would like is to swap them for a set of 8 inch rallys with caps and rings.
