Geez, spoiler alert!
The deeper we get, the longer it'll be there. I'll be posting more progress pics later.

So as promised more pics, and since the cat is out of the bag...Thanks Brian the car is at B&B Classics now. Yes, that one, headed up by the one and only Billy Utely. It couldn't be in better hands.

We sent it there to have a few things done, upgrade the brakes and to get it running and driving so we could figure out what it needed. Well, two weeks later it has had a few parts removed...


Oh and this :

Good thing we did go this far as the frame has some damage that needs to be addressed.

Here is the rest of it, sitting in the "skunkworx" room, lol

Call me weird, I say keep the body modifications as-is!!! I LOVE IT!!!
You could maybe put some Grand Sport touches on it but I'm really digging the 70's fat-tire look! Can't wait to see what you make of it!!!

Thanks Weird!
love the GS mods also...maybe next go around with the body and color change.

We like the look too of the fat tires, but they really don't lend themselves to high cornering loads in the autox... most likely end up with a 18/18 or 18/19 combo.

Why yes it is. Not for the Vette, but a Nova for another customer.
