Why this wedge set stands out

Designed specifically for 1963–1967 Corvettes, this kit combines both plastic and diecast wedges to accommodate different fit needs during restoration. The plastic wedges offer gentle contact to protect delicate edges during initial alignment, while the diecast wedges provide rigidity for final, precise positioning. The included shims allow microadjustments to finetune horizontal and vertical gaps, helping you lock in even, symmetrical panel alignment before you tighten everything down with the supplied screws.

Key benefits and realworld use

• Factorylike gaps that help the decklid seal properly and the doors sit flush with the body line.
• Damageconscious alignment using plastic wedges for initial setup to reduce risk of marring edges or paint.
• Durable final fit with diecast wedges for repeatable, solid alignment during final assembly.
• Flexible adjustment via 4 shims to accommodate minor variances in body panels, hinges, or mounting points.
• All hardware included8 screws ensure you have what you need to secure the wedges and lock in the alignment.

How to use (quick guide)

1. Dryfit the decklid and doors with the plastic wedges to establish an initial alignment without risking surface damage.
2. Switch to the diecast wedges for the final positioning, using the 4 shims to dial in any slight gaps on each side.
3. Mark reference points, then tighten the screws to secure the wedges in place.
4. Recheck operation: open and close the decklid and doors to confirm consistent gaps and smooth latching.

Ideal for weekend restorers, bodywork enthusiasts, and classic Corvette owners aiming for authentic fit and finish on 1963–1967 models. If you’re rebuilding decklid and door interfaces or replacing aging hardware, this set gives you the precise tools to restore original engagement and alignment.
