What is the approximate value you will be asking for that car? I bet that is going to get some people scratching their heads at car shows and cruises.

I have a technical question.. When you lift the body to drop it back on the frame, is there any chance it will flex and cause the paint to develop cracks? I've never painted one off the frame before.

No ls motor, tube chassis or BB . its getting a 392Ci stroker stock chassis . I would like to build a tube frame car someday but I build these to sell . When you go tube frame and ls power you add at least 50k to the price and it is not 50k better . I sell these hot rods for between 60 and 70 K and they are brand new cars when done . I sell them faster than I can build them

The '67s became the big desirable one with all of them turning into 435 hp cars. Like the saying, Chevy built 3754 435-hp 1967 Corvettes and all 7543 of them have been found and restored.
I have seen a long time ago some of the 1968 up bodies with a midyear coupe grafted to it and even a split window or two. But that was a long time ago.
So most that had been customized were restored stock, and most don't want to risk their investment in customizing. Still, there are more than a few on here that have been, with the extra wide rear quarters, and other changes.
