Default Top notch individual

I met the seller several years ago when he helped out me and my son on my son's 72 project. His skill and abilities are top notch and this car is well built. You can find his build thread for the car, and this was not his first build by far. We have gone to the track several times to watch him run the car. Having watched this car being built, I know his costs alone are at least what he represents he has in it. The Time and skill of his body work is equal to any top of the line body shop. If this is what you are looking for, this is a great, well built car for a very reasonable price.

Another bonus on this car , electric motors for headlights . Went to a recycle yard and bought Mazda Miata headlight motors and adapted them to a corvette. No more vacuum needed.

Sorry 66vet, never did put anything in writing when making this mod. I think several members have been down this road so if you do a search, the info should be out there . Thanks for the inquiry,
Norm

To answer your question 6GenVettes, yes, the hardtop is very heavy. Not interested in Florida real estate. Already have relatives on Pine Island and may end up there some day after I get burnt out on corvettes. Thanks for the offer !
