Default Look What I Found

SITTING IN A BARN SINCE 1979 IN NORTH WESTERN OHIO. NO MOTOR-TRANS. I HAVE A SMALL BLOCK AND A FOUR SPEED SET-UP I PLAN ON INSTALLING. IT WILL BE A CORVETTE CARLISLE THIS AUG, HOPEFULLY IN THE PARADE AND FOR SALE. CAR WAS BUILT IN THE EARLY 70"S FOR SCCA. REAL NEAT OLDSKOOL CAR.
TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK!

At first I thought is was a jeep with a roll cage, then I saw those lovely familiar curves... It's a Corvette alright. Nice find! Good Luck and keep us posted, keep the pics coming!
