Default "ROARVETTE" '64 Corvette Coupe Garage Built

Many of you have seen some of my photos on this web-site since 2005. I am at the stage of begining paint and have a completed rolling chassis all nice and ready to drop the body on. I have had this car for 5 years, and if you have any doubt how things change, my son Rocky in the photos is now driving and is 6 feet tall!
Over the next few weeks, I will post the entire project for those of you that are into that sort of thing.
The saga begins with this "prime" piece of Corvette history. A 64 coupe sitting on a 67 chassis which had been a drag car for many years. From the looks of the welding on the frame, it probably had a solid rear at some point as well as a cage.
The body had only minor issues for what was basically a basket case. The chassis was also solid. But let's not kid ourselves here, it was basically a 40 Year Old POS.
But since I am cursed with a vivid imagination I thought it looked great...
