Vette(s): 1974 Corvette convertible

For 20 years, I have been wishing for a 1974 Corvette convertible.  3 years ago I found the car.  Probably a 6 on a scale of 10.  The really neat thing is that extensive work had been done on the suspension and the frame is still in good shape.

So, this Spring I ordered a Blue Print 383 Stroker motor for it and a 5-speed transmission.  

Also,

Hooker Headers w/ Side Pipes

Be Cool Radiator with Electric Fans

Braun Seats

"Vetteworks" Roll Bar

Classic Car Stereo

American Racing Torque Thrust Wheels w/ Nitto Tires

Wilwood Brakes

New Carpet

It's not all together yet, but the engine and tranny are installed.  Just a little work left on the outside and then we start on the interior.

 

A real dream come true.
