Do we have any early Vette Knowledge here ?
I have an early front Corvette motor mount. The one that goes on the front of the Motor between the Water Pump and Block, Then crosses to the frame rails.
Does anyone have any idea what it's worth? |

What years vette used that type of mount? I never had a car old enough to still use the front mounts, oldest I had was three 66 Malibus(same age as me). Look on e bay and see what simiular things are going for or find a Vette board. Also check out Hemmings motor news.

Just found this thread. There were 2 different front mounts for the '56-'62 Corvettes. The '56 -'60 was straight across the back and the '61-62 had a half circle cut in the back to clear the plug in the top of the new style water pump.
The cut out version replaced the old straight back one as a service part and was available from GM well up into the '70s if not early '80s. I don't know what the last list price was for them but the price for the straight one when it went out of production was a whopping $3.05. I bought one in '72, the cutout style, for a spare engine for my '59 and the bill says retail price $4.10. I got a discount though. No money in repro parts, is there? If yours is the original straight one it should be worth more than the newer cut out one. I haven't tried to buy one in 33 years since I still have that new original I never used so I don't know what they would fetch on Ebay. Tom
