Very cool. Glad he chose the Corvette over the other options. Now just keep it on the black part.

Nice to see the car back in use instead of cut up for parts.

Yup. If you're going to build a racecar (off road use only), why WOULDN'T you start with a salvage vehicle, especially one that is mostly cosmetic damage.

All my race bikes, about 5 of them, were salvage.

Did he make it to the top? I'm usually at the race every year but in GA right now, so missed it.
