Callaway?
I have a question about the callaway supernatural. How can you tell the difference between a actual callaway from a clone? Yesterday I seen a 94-95 vette for sale sitting at starbucks and decided to take a closer look. When I got up closer i found it had a greenwood style body kit with the word callaway where the greenwood name usually is. With closer inspection it had supernatural letters under the doors and also on the front bumper. Also it was an auto and it was too dark to tell what the interior looked like but it was very very clean. The owner was no where to be found and since i've never seen a callaway in person i was curious if it was real or not. Does anyone have any pics of these. :auto:

Each motor is uniquely identified and can be verified through Callaway Cars based upon a VIN# if it was done through Callaway (Some crate motors were sold)
The Supernaturals could be equipped w/ a wide range of options and besides the engine (which had a Callaway exhaust) you could upgrade the exhaust further, add an Aerobody, wheels, COIL suspension, interior, on & on...
For more information on Callaway Cars - check out www.callawaycars.com
or, www.callawayownersgroup.com
here is a pic of a SNAT w/ a wing added to the Callaway Aerobody...
I think this one may have been an automatic as well...

The Calloway body kits weren't available without actually buying the car were they? I thought I read somewhere that he wouldn't sell just the body kits for that reason but I might be wrong; usually am! :jester

Here's a fake.
When I confronted the guy. He said he only had a Callaway "exhaust" system.

Listen to 89x2. He knows what he is talking about.
Chris,
Where is the purple car you posted located?

re: the purple (may have been a black rose color) was last seen for sale at the "Salon" at Corvettes @ Carlisle back in Aug. 2000 - it has a custom gray leather interior w/ some sort of design in the trunk area - talked w/ the owner for awhile - neat car, seemed dissapointed he was selling - It was a Supernatural Engine w/ aerobody
