Corvette 427 - Practical Restoration of a '67 Roadster

Ideal book for anyone interested in learning what really goes into classic auto restoration. The 1967 427 Corvette roadster is a classic sportscar and highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts. Don Sherman is a well-known and well-respected automotive writer. "Corvette 427: Practical Restoration of a '67 Roadster" brings together these two veterans in a unique book.

Sherman himself performed most of the work on the car, with an eye to restoring his Corvette as a practical road car as well as a show car.
Sherman shares aspects of his frame-up restoration including what worked, what didn't, and what almost did - like the several different brands of Corvette idler arms that he tried until he got the one that really made the difference in the car's steering.

With detailed photographs and a storyteller's talent for anecdote, Sherman chronicles each month, chapter by chapter, of the two years it took to restore a former drag-racing beater into a streetable blue-ribbon beauty. Focusing on a practical restoration, Don goes through the adaptations and hard decisions necessary to make a classic car a joy to drive, while staying true to the original designs of the factory.

Insights and techniques are applicable to all 1963-1967 Corvettes.
