Yeah, probably not. Long list of lots of little things to do still.

We have touchdown!
Thanks to Bill and Billy at B&B Classics for the assist, and the hoist

As I've heard in just about every vehicle assembly plant tour, "this is what we like to call the "marriage"!"

As sick as your Chevelle is this 66 is going to be one of those cars everyone wants a ride along in . 70's styling with an updated drivetrain ? I can't wait to see some videos of this thing on a road course , its gonna be awesome !!

I've seen a few Corvette bodies put on frames over the years, but NONE of those frames looked anywhere near as cool and menacing as that one did!!

Great job. She's gonna love the attention that car gets everywhere it goes.

Well, the marriage didn't go without a few problems, but with some more counseling, I'm sure we can work thru the issues

Thanks. Oh my Chevelle is still cooler. That's what I keep telling her anyway so maybe she'll want to switch vehicles

Thanks Lance, it's weird because it is 99% stock other than the silver color and the VanSteel trailing arms and mono spring. It definitely look different and I'm sure some hardcore Vette guys would not approve
