Great pics and info! Thanks for sharing!

That's a wild piece of equipment!

But if you were going to go to all the trouble and cost to restore it and get it into running condition and into a 1958 (I assume) Corvette, then why would you not use factory (or at least period correct) peripheral items like radiator, hoses, clamps, oil fill cap, etc. etc.??????? Sort of ruins the presentation to see a bunch of online Rock Auto parts stuck under the hood with that rare piece.

dual air meter unit sort of looks like a tunnel ram

Not D.B.

A few more from this Corvette show.
 

I stumbled onto these old photos today.
This customized ‘65 396 Black on Silver coupe was on display at this ‘75 Bob McDorman show.

This Corvette was owned by my buddy (Bob Smith) good friend. Darn I can’t recall the owners name.
If anyone reads this and recognizes this Day 2+ Black Custom Vette chime in.

Thanks.
