Default Guldstrand GS90 C4 Corvettes

Saw a couple of these cars at the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals last fall and thought I'd share this short walkaround clip. Real beauties IMO

There was one of these on display at the NCM when I went a few years ago. That thing looks better in person than I thought it would. It was a blast seeing a car in person that I could
Only see in magazines when I was young and starting a family.

There's not many of those GS90s around. So it's not like someone is going to get that many opportunities to see one up close even a national Corvette event.
Thanks for the video.

Saw one at this year's GNRS in Pomona, CA & got to talk to the owner for a while. Great looking cars when you see them up close & personal (if you can find one!).

Dick Guldstrand was an amazing guy. Famous Corvette racer,engine builder who died within the last few years. He built the engine in a 76 coupe I owned that he did for Mick Mars of Motley Crue. The car was in their video's. I contacted Dick in Calif to speak about his remembrances of the build and he gave me great info from memory. Sent him an engine cover and he signed for me right away. Those old racers are greatly missed by us 'old guys' that remember them for all their contributions

I had to do some research as I thought the GS90 only had 5 made. As it turns out this car was made in two styles. The roadster version which is powered by the LT1 or LT4 engine and based off a narrow bodied corvette. This car is called a Nassau. The GS90 however is a coupe based off the ZR-1 corvette sporting a LT5 engine and only available in the coupe model.

So the video above shows one of each a Nassau (3) and a GS90.

The flush glass rear window is perfect in many ways.
Seems there's a lot of other iconic designs rolled into one great looking car.

It looks like the C6 took some design queues from those cars, very nice.
