C2 Corvette Brakes (1963-1967)
C2 Corvette Brakes – 1963-1967
Sports car fanatics from all over the world are on the lookout for C2 Chevrolet Corvettes. With their total redesign from the previous generation, these 1960s vehicles defined what it meant to have a “racing” appearance. If you’re fortunate enough to have a classic StingRay in your garage, you’re in for the ultimate behind-the-wheel experience. However, you will need a solid set of brakes to tame that big-block V8 under the hood.
Like many vehicle parts, brakes call for routine maintenance and inspections. Select cars in the C2 lineup were famous for having over 245 horsepower, thrilling top speeds, and an aerodynamic shape to cut through the air.
About the C2 Corvette Braking System
The 1960s were an enjoyable time for the automotive industry. First-generation Corvettes featured drum brake systems from launch. Early model Sting Rays carried over these components.
If you have a 1963 or 1964 C2 Corvette, your vehicle most likely contains drum brakes. These components were the industry standard at the time.
From 1965 on, Corvettes left the Chevrolet factory with 4-wheel disc brake systems for improved reliability and performance. Fortunately, Top Flight Automotive supplies everything you need to regulate speed in all weather conditions.
We can upgrade your outdated drum brakes with modern replacements. Our team also provides disc brake components and advanced braking technology to enhance your vintage car’s safety.

They must do this to inspect brake condition, rust, and faded sections. If your stock drum brake system is inconsistent, bring your ride into the modern era with one of our C2 disc brake system conversion kits.
