Wanted 1963 - 1979 Vette roller

Woodfin · 02-21-2023, 05:25 PM

My first choice is an original, un-modified car but will consider all options. The plan is to do a back half and four link with solid rear axle.

Larry, is this going to be a "Stocker"?

Woodfin · 02-21-2023, 07:28 PM

Billy, no, not an NHRA class car. It is for a local nostalgia series.

Woodfin · 02-21-2023, 07:34 PM

Billy, the series I plan to run requires 1979 or older. Thus, the C-3 Vette would be a good fit. In a perfect world I would find a project someone began and has lost interest. A basket case would be fine for my intended buildup. A good core body with good paint would be ideal.
Do you have one or know of one?

1975 for sale on FB marketplace, Burgaw NC. Cheap and in pretty poor condition, so not a crime to cut apart. Not a racecar, but could be a good starting point
