If any of you guys are for real about getting a car done, I currently have a one-year wait list, but I could put you down for a 2015 build.

Reminds me of my 1962 and 1968 Vette's. Sure wish I had kept the 62.

No way I could do what you do. If I made that I could never part ways with it.

Sometimes by the end of a build, you don't want to ever see it again!

That said, I have a yard full of cars...

That's true, nothing ruins the love of a hobby like feeling obligated to do it.

It's a beautiful car and I wish I had the coin to have you rebuild my wife's pickup. Maybe someday we'll fix it up right.

If you want it blasted, use baking soda. DO NOT blast it with anything else. you don't want to strip the gel coat off, that is a bad thing. take it down to the gel coat, but don't take it off. You will have so many problems with shrinkage, paint not sticking, etc. So it is a C1? Nice.

Yes, a C1 restomod. Complete new chassis underneath with a LS3 and a T5, IRS, Brembo brakes, the works....


Im afraid it needs to be re-gelcoated...the fibers are coming through in certain spots...

Did you blast that one? Pot style blaster?

 

[AKguy1985]

Wow!!

 

[hoo-t]

Nice vette! But, I'd like to see more pics of the Buick in your avatar. I used to have a '72 GS convertible. Really miss that old car.
