It really didnt impress me that much for taking the whole car apart like that. I dont like like the L-88 hood or the fact thats an 68 
. Also Desktop Dyno 2000 says it has 450HP. 
Desktop Dyno 200 says I have 600 
. Well thats my completety biased opinion.

That sure was a lot of work that went into the restoration. I wonder what the final bid will be. Right now it is only at $7,500 with reserve not met.

and you might want to update that Desktop Dyno 200 of yours...seems a bit old.

No way I could sell it after all that.

I say I only put about 1/4 of that work into my '78, but still don't want to part with it when I think of all the work I put into it.

given that this car has about every chassis upgrade you can do, I sure would like a ride in it just to see haw the extra 5000-6000 bucks in chassis parts feels like.
Got the most expensive suspension upgrade in it (approx 2200?)
Steeroids - another 1200, right?
Brakes - plenty o money.
Just makes me want to know how good a C3 can be....

I'm curious about just how good the paint is. It doesn't look very deep. Black is awfully hard on a Vette...and it's all to easy to have orange peel and waves (like mine 
)
But it's a nice car...I'm interested to see what a fully-restored non numbers matching, modded '69 small block car will go for on Ebay these days.
