That engine is really cool but that paint job has to go. Gold is bad enough but combining it with a really strange blue blob just make it look funny.

I thought you didn't make it to the Monterey Historics 67Heaven? I saw the car and it is an incredible piece of machinery! I'm not a big fan of using carbon fiber for the interior, but I wouldn't nit pick if given one. It really is a modern ZL1 with all the creature comforts one could ask for. The guys at the booth had to follow me with a towel as I walked around the car drooling profusely. Guldstrand is a builder I would have complete confidence in designing and making a great package. A much more worthy 50th anniversary Corvette in my humble opinion!

Now THAT is a C5 I could like, and I mean REALLY LIKE! Dick Guldstrand is an awesome builder and a heck of a nice guy.
