That's one great looking car Cris, congrats. I know it's going to be a handful by the time your done!

You should put a hemi in it...

Cool car and neat that it's got the history. Have fun with it!

Sellers should have screened the buyers a little better....

I was thinking about keeping the SBC but 13.1 Compression ratio & have to run it on pump gas for 500 hp.. It just dosen't make sense when I can get 600 HP on pump gas out of a LS somthing.. I have a plan on keeping it looking vintage under the hood with a LS engine..

There is history behind this car & that is why I luv it! I don't plan on making it look super nice.. I just want something I can race the crap outta it & not worry about paint or other things

It will be something AL! as long as I am having fun..

I would "NEVER" put a Mopar motor in a Chevy!

Love the 69 Cris!

[Solid LT1]

First time I watched that Vette race was back in the 70s. The LT-1 was owned by a guy named Denny Greenwood....then Lynn Anderson....it's one of the reasons why there are 2 LT-1 Corvettes in my garage. You have a real 70 LT-1 there with great racing history. Speedy and Jan were great people to hang around with at the races.

I would go over the frame with a fine tooth comb looking for stress cracks and check the differential out....they tend to be fragile

Very cool car. I will be watching this.
