So what if you have no trophies. I have some, and all they remind of is cars that I were scared to drive, leave in a parking lot, and constantly had to obsess over. Thats a bad ass car and a trophy is not needed IMO.

Thanks very much. Had it out the other day. It gets sideways real easy!

Nuttin better than a bbc w/ sidepipes. Very nice car.

Thanks. Once the weather clears I hope to add a hard-core vid. My goal is a screaming posi-burnout right down the street! About 2 months away, stay tuned.......

Long live the 68-69 C3. Just the sound of the exhaust would send a Honda Civic running for cover.

Thanks. Yeah it's got some grunt. I have the original 427 in the garage being preserved- they both sound the same.

i think the stingray's were the best corvette's they looked way better then those newer platstic rolling garbage cans they made after like the z06 sure there faster but theres more to a car then just speed and here's an example of speed and looks and class

Thanks Ray! Car is fun, looks cool, and I've been very happy with the new motor set-up. Decided to leave the car shows for the purists. Let them worry about non-original wiper blades and missing trim. I'm a cruise night kinda guy; pop the hood for a couple hours, then hunt for a Mustang owner waiting at a red light.

I think Fred Genck had a car just lIke that! I like the hood
