Boy those wheels are really making a comeback. Seems like I can't even turn around without seeing a vette with those wheels these days.

Awesome looking vette!

I am bringing this back to the top!! because I keep thinking about this car!! Could you give us a bit more info on what you have done? The interior looks completely stock. Are the wheels 17"? What tires? Is the engine the crate 502 or did you upgrade? Functional L88 hood? Did you upgrade the suspension? I am wondering what it takes to get a 68 convertible into the 11s!! :) MJ

Dude! Awesome...

It's INCREDIBLE as is, but I was also trying to imagine some Hooker Chrome Sidepipes with that 502 rumbling by.

Either way, it's beautiful!!! :chevy :chevy :chevy
