A good paint job and it's off to Barrett-Jackson. A little to custom for me but I love the interior.

Hi,
Well it's obvious I've been worrying way to much about stuff that doesn't matter!
WELL DONE!!!!
Regards,
Alan

Can you see over the front end when driving? It looks pretty tall!

Driver door panel is obviously a one off! The dash gauge mount above the steering wheel has obviously been given a great deal of thought as to placement. He would not need to take his eyes off the road to view speedo/tach....that is if they actually worked.

He could greatly increase his potential bidders IF he would fix the windshield (duct tape the crack?). That may be the main reason most will hold off from bidding on that customized 1977 Corvette.

Wonder the response of attending Pebble Beach with that creation? General Lee horn?

Very unique vehicle for that special individual?
