zeitgeist57 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 I have a close family friend who is looking for a reputable shop that will help maintain her late husbands '62 Corvette until her son is old enough to drive it. Looking for a shop or well-known Corvette individual that I can feel comfortable recommending. Specifically, there is a broken brake line right now. I would ask through Corvetteforum, but they may have purged my user id since I haven't logged in in a few months... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurkvinny Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 Where is she? The good news is they're simple. Is she driving it much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Alex- Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 I would think Bob McDorman may be a good place, considering his collection. A '62 model would be very basic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob McDorman no longer exists. Its now Jeff Wyler and they suck donkey dick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob McDorman Chevrolet got bought by Jeff Wyler about 2 years ago, and Wylers is a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuicedH22 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 You wanting work done on it, or them to store it? or both? If you want it worked on, there is NO ONE better than Danny Popp in Cincinnati... he knows every model of corvette, and knows them in-and-out better than anyone I know. If you are looking for it to be stored long-term as well though, Danny does not have the facilities for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hpfiend Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 I didn't know he worked on corvettes but that Dan Popp can sure drive them well ... I would take it to http://www.restoration-station.com/ in springboro but the tow might cost a lot.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dharris89 Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 If your friend has any trouble getting the brake line try The Right Stuff in Westerville. I once took in pieces of a broken brake line for my firebird and they bent me one on the spot. http://www.getdiscbrakes.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POS VETT Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 Lloyd usually won't touch anything older than a C5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS69 Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 For brake lines, I buy from The Right Stuff Detailing. Brian from Corvette Corner has a shop but I can't remember what it is called now. Yep, Lloyd on works on later model vettes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillbot Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 Tach It Up motorsports is highly regarded by all the Corvette guys around Dayton, not sure if you want to go that far though. http://www.tachitupmotorsports.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
