Sure Patrick - pick on the new guy - make him do all the work!!
OK -Done - Now we have equality for the C1 & C2 history lessons.
By the way, if any of the C1 & C2 lovers on the forum have any other information to add to the histories that Patrick has started, lets hear about it.

Good Info Ray
Also, the hood on the '64's was different from the '63's. The "pieplate" inserts in the '63 hood were eliminated in '64.
Other running changes during the year:
- early '64 hubcaps were polished - later ones had frosted paint applied.
- early '64 sill plates had 4 hold down screws, the later ones had 6 screws.
One of the interesting things about the mid-year vettes was the constant changes that were implimented, even within a model year.
Ya gotta love em !!!!

A good report Patrick there is also some information that corvette people might not know is on the 1964 corvette. Is how do you tell the early 64 from the later 64 at a clance. The early 64 had a raised pad for the door handle to mount the later one's didn't, also the early 64s had two different coloured shocks front being grey and the rear shocks being black. Just a little more info.

I know that you really know your stuff, and that the above statment is just a mix up.
Early '64 grab bar inserts had 4 screws, later '64 and all 65-67's had 6 screws.
That's what you meant isn't it??
