Default Re: 63 vette Grand Sport engine build??

----Two things are interesting in this great picture from the "Dykstra" archives (thanks Jake) other than the trim tag. Notice that the door hinge is made from aluminum! Also, if you look inside that crack you can see the thin, woven glass that was used thruout the Grand Sport build process.
----Dont know where in the Tech Center Tom was, but I can tell you that he was fairly tight with Zora.....Bill S
