    Yes it has a long history, it has been a race car since 1966. The previous owner was Steve George. This is an extremely competitive car that consistantly places on the podium. It has a 327 ci @ 558 hp along with the help of the famed 60's GM Corvette Race Team mgr Walley Peat helping on set up .

    I had Dave Kindig of Kindigit http://www.kindigit.com/ do the new body flares and paint - I really think this kid is the new up and coming star. He has done some unreal projects.
    I looked at all of the old photos of my car to see the previous color schemes and body mods and went from there, all while keeping the car currently vintage race legal.
