There's a "companion" to it, a black one owned by Tony Rhodes Sr., that has been parked since the two of them were taken out of Super Stock.

Two of the nastiest Super Stock Corvettes around.

Alan, I to know where that vette is now and then, you are right it is BAD! But, was the black one, which I believe ran very little, was out of Florida? If so where is it currently? Thanks. That car was ahead of its time.

Nope. The black one belongs to Tony Rhodes, right here in Murfreesboro TN. His son, Tony Jr, drives a Chevy II. Tony Sr. parked the car when they took the 67 L-88 out of the guide.

i remember it when he ran at Huntsville and Atlanta back in the days...I wondered whatever happend to it........

I would say Tony, and Bridges are my favorites. I've been watching Jimmy race since i was 10yrs of age.......He has told me some funny stories over the years...

Alan, thanks for the clarification, it has been a while! LOL....You said it was black did it have some anodized wheels on it? I saw it from afar and it looked great! I bet if it is not back in the books someone could push to have it reinstated. Do you have any pictures of the car?

Who / where is the car running now? I'd like to see it again.


Yep, Tony's car was a bad ride also
The ADCO corvette is owned and run by Jimmy Bridges now. It is bad quick. I believe that he has run both B and C with it. I would like to see a in car video of that car..
