Default Now I have 2 C2's. This one is a little different, however.

This is a Charlie Stewart purpose built race car I just picked up. It does not replace our '67, it's in addition to it. It has a 1,330 hp SR20 Brodix headed 632 cubic inch Chevrolet based big block in it. It should run mid 7's at 185 miles per hour. What the heck. I got a pretty good deal on it. At 62 you've got to keep your options open, and as a die hard Corvette guy I couldn't resist.

Looks nice!
Looks like the front end is a little high though.

Your lack of headlights will totally cost you points...Ha!

Randy,

Please post a pic again of your "previous" hot rod for those who may not know your racing history.

Hope things are improving or at least holding steady for you and Mrs. Stay strong.

Rex
