Please Help Me !!!
www.cardomain.com/ride/3199541
Hello guys, and girls. I'm trying to find the shop that built these vette's that are on this domain site. These pics are not my vette's. But, i had the contact info on my PC, and the harddrive crashed. CRAP !!
My question is, do any of you guys, or girls, recognize these pics and maybe know the website that they saw them on ?? I have been trying to find the site, and have had no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Bill

The pictures are of a Resto-Rod built by SRIII Motorsports with their tube frame chassis. Actually Mike (from SRIII) helped me a lot when I built mine and I used his chassis.
I have other pictures of the car that Mike took that are not on the Website. Mike Stockdale built the car, is a great guy, and can be reached at:

That is an awesome C3 Vette, what Chevy should have built.
Loved the pics but could you expand on the mods?

Oh Thank God !!!!
Dude, holy crap, thanks man. That's great news !! Do you know what is the type of nose/front end on this car ?? I noticed how low or close to the nose the lights are ?? There is nose nose/valence cover also ?? Is this hand made or a custom front end ?? I'm very interested in that piece ?? Thanks again man, you saved my butt. Jeez ....
Oh, is that your car with blue color and the stripe ? That thing is wicked, i love it. I'm still waiting on my 73 to get delivered from New York, i can't wait to get started on it. How much do the C3's weigh, on average ??

Actually don't know who did the 73. The bumper is molded in and looks like it was cut back so it's closer to the headlights. Looks good.
Gross weight of a C3 is about 3340lbs give or take (that's the registration weight on my 81). I weighed mine a few weeks ago and with a half-tank of gas came in at 3120.

'73s are closer to 3410lbs,, about the same weight as a new mustang GT, a good weight.
