I am a Collection Caretaker for a private car collector here in Fort Worth. One of our cars a red 1963 convertible was completed earlier this week. The front end portion of the chassis was completed in house. We contract out total overhaul of the rear suspension and installation of an LS3 with 5-speed manual. Came out really nice, great ride.

There's no hint of what's under the hood. A great job with the engine/transmission upgrade. It should be a lot of fun to drive.
