    Randy - I was hoping that sometime in my lifetime I would see pictures or maybe even see that car run down the street under its own power. Sighhhhhhh

    I hear ya, Dave! I have actually driven it a lot under it's own power but I just didn't know you then....

    If I end up doing this deal and if I can juggle things correctly, it may actually speed up the process. I thinking it would make more sense to try to sell my current frame as a rolling chassis to fund the new one. It may not be show quality but it's a really good driver chassis and already has the Mustang II, 9" rear, 4 wheel disc brakes, etc. I think it would be way too much work to make this chassis pretty enough for the corvette suspension.

    There are a few SoCal companies that have 35-40 boxed frame rails & center sections that aren't too bad on price. If I brought the suspension & install kits to them, they could make it a roller pretty easy.

    I need to check with California DMV about potential registration issues with adding a new frame & selling the old one.
