You`ll find that Eddie Hill sometimes posts on dragboatalley.com I`ve been a follower of Eddie since i saw him run his top fuel hydro against Rick Hendrick`s "Nitro Fever" in 1982 in High Point, North Carolina. Needless to say, Eddie was the victor. I didn`t know that he ever posted on a Corvette forum but its not surprising. He`s a living legend with many toys.

He had a red/red c5 for sale on here a couple of years ago and bought a c6 so he's probably over in that section now.

I am glad to see Eddie doing well nowadays. I was at the race in Sears Point in 1997 when he crashed. It was a doozy, he's lucky to be alive from that one. Good Luck finding him. I bet you could contact him through his dealer website.

Default FourFather Eddie Hill Ultima Can-Am/427 Chevy

The British Ultima is a tube-framed, fiberglass bodied, Chevy-powered supercar that is a GTR in coupe form, and Can-Am in roadster form.

Mine has a 427 inch small block, that is now getting an aluminum Dart block installed. With the aluminum block installed, the car should weigh about 2100 pounds. It has a Porsche G-52 transaxle, 5-speed. Huge Brembo brakes, Hoosier DOT slicks.

Not as quick as a top fuel car, but about as close to one as you're apt to get---in a street legal car!

Eddie
