Default Re: L88

Thanks SBR. When I was about 8 years old, maybe younger, this was the first corvette I had ever seen and I was a corvette lover ever since. This was about 1972 best guess. A few years later my dad bought a wrecked corvette and rebuilt it, which was the same car. My dad had the car for several years and ended up trading it and an airplane for a helicopter in about 1986. By then the car was far from original. It had a 74 front clip, 77 rubber backend, M21 trans and a 350 2 barrel from a 72 impala. But had the L88 hood, radio delete plate with I think an oil pressure guage mounted in it and had glue remnants from a sticker in front of the e-brake handle. The history of this car I new of as a kid was: Andy Africa-Daryl Ray-Tim Loyle-my dad-? My dad and I were never 100% sure that the car we had was an L88. Now I would just like to know where the car is and what kind of shape it is in. I have a lot of found memories of this car from my teenage driving years. I would love to see this car in its original glory if indeed it was a true L88. Thanks for your interest.
