69 Corvette Road Race Build

[FLYNAVY53]

Neil, nice work.....now I'm going to kindly ask that you get out of my head....

You've managed to pretty much build exactly what I would have/want to, right down to the CCW Classics, Hoosiers, and the Prototipo wheel. The only thing I would have done is gone with Fathom Green and an LS7 (I realize both the paint and motor were done when you purchased the car).

Keep up the good work, Im jealous as hell!

Too funny. : ) Yes, certain parts are must-have's for a build like this. After looking at the Garner AIR L88 car, various early 70's 911's, Strope's Martini Mustang, etc. I just had to run the Prototipo wheel. I'll either do an LS-based motor or a really nasty big block down the road, but the current motor sounds good and should run good with the T56/4:11 combo. The Fathom Green would look awesome over the flares as well. The Babe Headley L88 race car is dark green and looks killer. I saw that car at Pebble Beach go through auction about 15 years ago. It was gorgeous and I should have bought it.

Prototipo's are great wheels. It looks extra cool with the gold hardware, too!
