Dynamic Corvettes - C1, C2, C3 Corvette Restoration/Repair/Restomod shop in Saginaw. Since 1982 we've been crazy about Corvettes. It's all we work on! We also have a large catalog of custom fiberglass / carbon fiber parts that are DESIGNED, MOLDED, BUILT, and SOLD by only us! We take great pride in our parts, using only top of the line materials from start to finish. Unlike some competitors, we use woven fiberglass strand mats which are laid on the mold and infused with resin by hand. Instead of cheap all-purpose resin, we ONLY use vinyl ester resin which is much stronger.
You don't cut corners, and neither do we. If you're looking for the highest quality custom parts for your Corvette, you'll find them at Dynamic Corvettes.

I'm so glad that you guys are making longer videos and this is so informative, thanks!
I need to do this on my 73 Corvette and this video lets me hope that I won't destroy the clip. That you!
Great video, congrats to dad upgrading your car👍
awesome work, love the paint job, hopefully, that gets transferred to the new front clip. love that engine bay
I'd give this more thumbs up if I could. Thanks for the great video, more please.
More to come!
Great stuff... just subscribed. Look forward to seeing the install of the new nose and how that gets secured and aligned
Ditto! Haha
I have a question? Great job btw! You guys used chisels & wedges to break the bonding strips loose. How come? Was it ONLY to save & reuse the old front end? Why not simply use an air chisel? I would assume less work & more efficient. If you weren't trying to save the old F.E., Then would you use an air chisel? Thank you gents!
Thanks Mike. We like to it by hand because it is less aggressive. We want to maintain as must of the bonding strips as possible.
That’s pretty amazing and I am amazed how strong that epoxy adhesive really is. You guys did an excellent job removing the entire clip. Do you know why the owner wants the older 1969 look? I was just curious is all. I have no idea what this would cost, but would it have been cheaper for him to sell the 1980 car and purchase an original 1969? Thanks for the video.
Wow!
Go Michigan Corvette
I have installed ft clips, but never removed one. Good video!
Thank you for this video very informative and helpful I'm subscribed now!
Would using a heat gun help breaking the bonding strip and cause less damage removing outer panels?
P.S. where's Part 2 ???
How much would you charge for this?
Thanks. Good Video .
Great video. Very informative and detailed. Is there a part showing the rear clip removal??
Thanks for posting this. I have been looking at a 1970 windshield back shell online and wanted to save it from just sitting on the ground. I wanted to turn it into a open wheel buggy. Everyone I know is building VW buggys and I wanted something different, so this is the reason i started looking for a wrecked corvette. This one has been stripped, so everything will have to be fabricated up. It will be cool to drive a V8 front wheel drive buggy and still have that old school corvette style body to it. My build will not be cheap though because I will still have to look for a few corvette parts to replace. Its missing the t-tops and a few other parts. I wanted the interior to look like a corvette so that's where most of my money will be spent.
I need that old 82 front clip
at 6:32, what's he doing behind the fender????? HAHAHAHAH
Would a heat gun help this process?
Great video but where is part two? The link provided takes me to a C2 front clip
this video has help SO much! im about to take this exact front off but wondering what else had to come off before this? obviously the front bumper and headlights. but is there anything else really important? or did you remove all of that to make it easier?
Would the process for front clip removal on a C1 be basically the same... thx.. M
Should a heat gun be used?
We don't use a heat gun.
I used a heat gun like advised by some and it didnt help much.
so I'm going to replace my 1968 front clip with an original 1968-69 front clip that has the original inner fenders
still mounted to it. can't I just remove the old clip with the inner fenders still attached? and install the other with
the inner fenders without any problems?
At your shop what's the price on the conversion 77 to a 72
How much to do my 77?
Nice start; however, your name for the video indicates that you’d be installing your 69 front clip, which isn’t in the video and you’ve got this video in your video “playlists”, one video does not make a playlist. Overall disappointing.
Hahaha. Beep
