A 1963 Corvette fuel pump can be rather easily rebuilt yourself. Kits are available from Dr. Rebuild as well as many other Corvette suppliers. The rebuild process is pretty straight-forward and you don't need to be a "level 5" mechanic to perform it.

Collin, I agree with Joe. It is easy to do. Just don't force any screws to take it apart. Soak anything that is stuck to help break the seal.

I assume you have a 4657 pump? What color are the 10 screws that hold on the bottom section.
