Default My corvette is finally rolling

After a lot of work building the suspension and other stuff I finally have a rolling frame. Sure took my long enough building it all from scratch. It now has a completely home built suspension all around, 4 corner coil overs, front and rear double a arm independant suspension and a front steering end take off rack an pinion. Still lots more to do though.

Hello Marck!!

Thank you for your nice words. I really apreciate it from you. I cant take the credit from machine and desing work. My friend helped me and we desing em together. They have same geometry than later C4s do . Yes the hubs are from C4 too. For starters i am going to use GS brakes. But as you see from pictures the brake bracket can be easily bolted off and re made for bigger brakes in futute. Ps i got mine on wheels too this evening. And even "drove" it an inch !!! I dont have my steering arms done yet.
