a Corvette Grand Sport on a replica Cobra chassis?...so much for GM licensing having ANYTHING to do with originality...I wonder where that big mouth who said this is "The suspension design will be based off of the original" or this "The fact is General Motors broke with tradition by issuing an exclusive contract to manufacture the authentic 1963 Corvette Grand Sport. They provided access to their archives and provided us with blueprints and other vital information to allow us to faithfully reproduce this famous car. but that does not imply that GM doesn't care about 'quality, accuracy or country of origin'. Pay the fee and get the tag may apply to coffee cups, but not authentic automobiles. For that, General Motors is keenly interested in every aspect of the finished product"
really? I guess if it looks like a coffee cup and walks like a coffee cup it must be a coffee cup....at least it`s an authentic coffee cup....oh wait.

The GS at SEMA had a Duntov chassis under it. No coil-overs up front, steering links that appeared to be bolted solid to a plate, Eibach springs with rubbers in them, etc. The car itself was a quickly cobbled-together piece that "had" to make an appearance because it's over a year behind schedule.
