He is 36 and now has a few mid years. He built his first car a 69 396-375 chevelle when he was 15!

I just saw the car on the Roadster shop website. here are more pics.
http://roadstershop.com/galleries/jasons-1963-corvette/
Question for you: I see the car has a Wildwood master cylinder, but I don't see the big power booster usually used. Does the car have power brakes, if so how is it "powered"?

Thanks for the kind word. He worked hard on it. Most of the work was done in his garage with no lift or heat (Pa winters are cold)

What if Bill Mitchell had put the BB scoop hood on ALL the '63s? IMO the stock SWC would have looked even cooler from above. And more room for more carbs on taller manifolds!
