Hello. I want to get the driveshaft balnced during the upcoming winter. I wondered if anyone has used Pat's Driveline in Mississauga and their opinion. Thanks and take care.

Wow. I have a 69 and the object in picture #3 does fit under/in the headlight bucket. There should be one on both sides , at least in 1969. What they do is turn off the headlight bulb that is in the centre console letting you know that both headlights have fully poped up and "locked" in place...

Hello 81C3Vette. You might want to try Davies AutoBody Ltd. They have been around for quite some time and appear to have a very good reputation. Should be able to help, or point you to a solution. They use to be in Toronto but are now in Brampton. Worth the drive and to see some of cars they...

Hello Mooseham. I'm also in Oakville and I have used Stingray Auto for several years. They are in the west in of Mississauga. Take the trip to their shop, usually interesting to see what is there and get a feel of them and their work. Take care and good luck finding a shop.

Hello venn. I think only one end, at the Carburetor. Take a look at the online vendors for what they look like. I believe they also have a similar piece you mention, just not in blue. Don't know about the fuel pump but forums seem to have complaints about the higher failure rates of new...

I think that the number of C3s and their owners are decreasing. Most of the activity is on the newer generations forums.

Hello Lawrence. I might be a little late in responding but I've heard good things about The Carb Guys. their site says they are in Toronto but it's actually Oshawa. If you do decide to go at it yourself there is Cliffs High Performance for parts , he also does some servicing of the carbs. he is...

Hello 50th AEfan. I had a question about the event September 14-16 at the CWHM. When will the cars be on the floor for viewing? Will it be all three days and all day? I would like to see them but just not sure when to go. Thanks and take care.

A very kind and generous offer.

Hello andyc31968. I have used Stingray Auto in Mississauga, near to Mississauga/Oakville border for my 69 with no complaints. Also used Robinson Automotive in Mississauga for my daily driver. Robinson often has "classics" in the shop and is familiar with Corvettes. Both have websites and if not...

Hello Rruff Day and thanks for your quick reply. I had heard of the company in Oshawa and wondered if any one had any experience with them. Hadn't thought of Race Ready, good suggestion that I should look into . Thanks and take care.

Hello. Wondered if anyone could recommend somebody in Canada that can rebuild a Quadrajet? Thanks and take care.

Hi. I'm not sure if you mean it doesn't turn over or it turns over and doesn't fire up. Either way heat could be a problem. The starter could be hot and nor engaging ,they do sell heat shield "blankets" so it is a some what common problem. Or if it doesn't fire it could be the gas has sat, no...

Hello. I know that with my 69 I replaced the pull on/off switch. First time I tried them the Low beams worked but when I tried the high beams they worked for seconds and then started to strobe. Tried them again after that and only lows, nothing from the highs. It turned out that the switch has...

Hello and greetings. I would think any of major companies grease would do the job. Not sure just what those companies might be in Norway but there really isn't a lot of difference between the big names in grease. I would think that anything by Mobile would be of good quality and you couldn't go...
