Looking awesome. I just noticed the painted bumper. I'm curious to see what you do for the grill opening area. Any hints on wheels?

Thanks Neil, I was thinking of a mesh grille like the RideTeck corvette but I think I will stay with the 71 grille's. I saw your CCW's for your car and they look great just a few more dollars than I want to spend. Going into this project I have stuck with Team Three wheels (LT's), 18 x 10 and 18 x 12's with 275 front and 335 in the rear. Here is a pic of the wheels
|
However I am open to some suggestions for the front grille opening.
I would like to thanks again Stahl Headers (Greg Stump [email protected]) Jim at Classic Air and auto for the FIA set up (http://www.classicaircraftautoinc.com/) Blue Print Engines and Jeff Leech at Mid America Industries (309 787 5119). Its been a long haul but the beast will be on the road soon. |

Congrats! The dash came out looking great, too.

Thanks I actually had it buttoned up only to find out the ECU from Vintage Air was bad as well as the sending unit on my Fuel Safe Fuel cell. Vintage air was great in trouble shooting it with me and when it was identified it was the ECU I got a new one in two days!!!! On the other hand after we trouble shot the system (their support was very good as well) I shared fuel safe my build site to show them there has only been fuel in the system for 2 weeks and they said the warranty ran out tuff. They did take a few bucs off when I purchased anther one, lesson learned.

Ok I am out of hibernation from building a large addition to our home so all I have to do is the interior, front grills and working brakes. This is the first time the car has moved under its own power and with these wheels and tires.
|
sorry having trouble posting my pictures

|
So bad ass!!!!!!!!:rockin::beavis:
Great job! |
Stellar!
|
Few more pics, just got appraised and waiting on the insurance.
Well pics are not loading will try later |
45 miles on it and it is wicked quick. No issues and I am switching to a power brake setup, the Wilwood I have just is not doing it. I will go with 15/16ths power boosted.
|
Great to hear that. I'm glad you've be able to put a few miles on the car.
|
I am going with Hydratech set up, the vacuum booster does not fit.
|
Car looks badass, really digging that wheel setup
|
Just received my HydraTech set up hope to have it done this weekend.
|
Pics! We need pics!
:ttiwop:
I wanna see, I wanna see! C'mon now! LOL |

Thanks I am putting in my Hydratech power brake system tomorrow
|
I will test the waters in the coming week putting the car up for sale. As mentioned with the Ride Tech 48hr Corvette selling last month for $127,800 it might be a good time to test the market. Cheers
|
What very nice work.I`ll be interested to see the finished product.
