its it a badass vette, but i wouldnt buy it. i woul bee to afraid to drive it, and at heart, i am a modder, or customizer. i would have an easier time turning a non LT-1 car in to one than ruining an original Lt-1. IMHO still a very sweeeet vette! :cheers: :cool:

Definitely nice, but I can't see paying $37K for a small block '70 LT-1 Vette no matter what world rating it has.

It is really nice, lots of new and repainted parts but way too expensive for that car.

Somebody has to do this, so I guess I will. I agree with you guys I think it is a fantastic car. But I can see where the front brakes have leaked at one time on the tires, and it looks like the rear diff is leaking now. Both of these are common with our cars though, but for that kind of money I am gonna be looking awfully close. That is a lot of cabbage. :D

Don`t flame me too hard on this. I see it has new stainless sleeved calipers but nothing mentioned about the diff.
