I've worked on quite a few of them here in S. FL. They're a pain to work on like a lifted truck because ya need something to stand on all the time to get in the engine compartment. You'd be surprised how many have built BBC engines in them. Scary part is that most have stock brakes and they can't stop very well. Brake pads/shoes don't last very long.

John, I see you're in Florida so I'm sure you cannot go from one corner to the next without seeing them to the left and to the right of you. Yes, I know, they do build the motors up. I've seen them with thr 6-71 blowers, etc on them.

I take a different way home from work vs. going to and every afternoon I see at least 5 or 6 Donks! Ridiculous!

I've never been a fan of that generation Vette, but I feel like that car has been the victim of some type of crime! Guess that explains the crime scene tape on the ground...

I sent my cousin who has a C3 with a similar paint job these pics and suggested he make a wheel change. I will not tell you what he suggested I do.
