This car is actually owned by my friend, but most of the design work, project planning, and wrench turning has fallen on myself up to this point. So, I'm not claiming to own it, but I am claiming to know more about it, and to have spent more time in it, than the owner (my best friend). :rolleyes:

The idea for this one is Pro-Touring. We've got oversized (17" or 18") wheels and a slick 2002 Corvette blue paint job with a silver pinstripe planned for it. The 360 from my Barracuda is going to be dropped in once it has been rebuilt, along with a beefier 904 and an 8-3/4" rear. It'll be real nice with a custom interior, A/C, and a sweet sound system.

Here it is. These are old pictures... The car is gutted now, and is getting ready for the next stage of the build. It is an original /6 car from California and is totally and completely rust free.

After seeing your other cars I'm sure this one will turn out great.
