Curious as to what was wrong with original frame that it could not be repaired/saved. Corvette venders out there have been offering weld in sections for the rust prone areas of midyear frames for years and which I am sure you are aware of. Is the VIN stamped on 63 frames as it is on later midyears?

Neat car and looking good!

I was reluctant to repair the frame myself when good clean used ones could be had for less money. The amount of work to overcome the scale was a deterrant as well. You are correct about the VIN stamp on all years including 63. I am glad I took the route I did as it car required VERY little shiming.
