Just bought my first vette. I think it's a pretty good starting point.
Just acquired my '75 coupe. Already replaced the brake calipers with Wilwood 4 pistons, installed new aluminum 3 core radiator and dual electric fans.
Let me tell you a little about my "NOT CORRECTLY RESTORED STINGRAY".
I have owned the car since 1987, and since it has gone through several performance and couple of cosmetic modifications.
The engine is a 383 "stroker" putt
Crane 2030 cam, Renegade manifold, bored throttle bodies, Stan tri y headers, custom 2.5" stainless exhaust, dual electric fans, 18" Intro Pentia wheels, lowered about 1 inch, vbandp smart struts, t56 transmission, 3.73 gears in the works!
I started this project 11 years ago..... I sometimes wish I never bought it on Ebay, but it keeps me busy.
