At America's Finest Corvettes we have our buyers searching every barn and backyard in the southwestern United States for only the best used Corvettes that are ready to be recycled. These are original GM frames that have been inspected for integrity, jigged for trueness, sandblasted, metal conditioned with phosphoric acid, then painted with acrylic enamel with a hardener.
Buying a reconditioned original GM frame from us assures you that the frame is straight and rust free.
There are many safety issues with a frame that was once rusty and pitted. After sandblasting a frame that has experienced pitting, there will be a significant amount of metal loss that affects the structural strength and rigidity of a frame.
As a result your frame and car body most likely will experience flexing, cracking and poor handling. In many cases it will be outright dangerous to drive.
After purchasing a rolling frame and suspension from us, we will have saved you a year's worth of time and frustration that you would have regretted spending on your restoration. In most cases, by the time you are done, (if ever), with your under carriage restoration, it will have cost you more than if you purchased a complete roller from us outright (no cores necessary)!
Do you really want to build your car around a frame that has been compromised? Here at America's Finest Corvettes we end your chassis nightmare. We remanufacture 1963-1982 frames that will properly support your body as original. One that is every bit as good as GM. When you build your corvette body on our completely re-manufactured rolling frame and suspension, you will be amazed at how tight your corvette is able to drive with that positive steering.
Your car will not shake and rattle like your typical 30-40 year old Corvette. Your Corvette will become a great driving experience and you will never regret leaving your entire undercarriage up to us.
