We finished it in 1979 literally the day we took it to Bloomington Gold. The crowds around the car were unbelievable all weekend long. It appeared in Corvette News in the Feb/Mar issue on the cover with a really in depth article as well. We painted it red as the only real customer we had for No.1 was Jerome Shinkay and he loved red. Just how historic the GS's were wasn't quite as extreme as today.....Bill S

There are lots of nice GS replicas out there, I wish someone would replicate one that looks like the early coupe above that closely resembles the stock Corvette.
