71 Pro Touring
A few years back I posted my build on C3 Tech and probably should have posted it here. Well here are some pics of the finished project although it is really never finished. I have also included two sites of my build, I will update this one as much as I can. Thanks

From: PHOENIX, AZ Yes, it's true. You are a good woman. Then again, you may be the Antichrist.
Whether it's your cup of tea or not, a LOT of work and $ went I to that. Looks like a quality build. Nice! 
The next video should show it in action.

I will just say it accelerates like a @#$%^&#. As far as the grill I like the 69 gills better than the grates and the flare/fenders had them since they were taken off one of the 5 Owens Corning Cars. Jeff Leech from Mid America Ind put a lip on them which has worked out fine. Corvette Stories

Just added 3m film on the front of the rear flares and will begin making a front spoiler. I went to check out the new dominion raceway just down the road from me and it looks "good enough". They has the exotic car day there when I was there where they had a few Porsche, Lamborghini's and Ferrari's there humming around the track. I would like to get out there. cheers

Beautiful build and I love the color! On the 68-69 side gills, the front portion of the rear gill (which is closed off) was painted satin black to provide similar look as the other gills. Just 'food for thought'.

Rear tire is 335 with 285 in front. Remember I have a Dana 44 from a 96 in the rear so my offsets will not work for a stock frame

After 500 miles with the Corbeau retractable harness I will pull it for a 5 point harness. Just never seemed to work the way I thought it should and with this car the 5 point is a much better solution and I still can reach all the switches. Pics soon, just ordered the harness.
