I stumbled across this today. And I figured it'd make some of you smile (no snide remarks about my legs...L-O-L). Taken with a high tech Instamatic in my future Father-In-Law's driveway; circa 1974.
The car was my for-real 1971 LS6 Corvette. The engine came out and was, uh, reworked a wee bit. Basically, the compression was upped and everything except the intake was swapped for LS7 hardware (all from the local Chevy dealer, by the way), then the entire works was balanced & blueprinted. It had a set of Hooker headers, M/T valve covers and as you can see, five spoke wheels. With a 3.55:1 gear set and a rock crusher, it was absolutely huge fun on the highway [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img].
Wish I had it today. And I wish I was that young too!
