Default Re: 1964 Corvette Barn Find "Relic of the 70s"

JMHO, but being NOM, if the body mods are well done, I would restore the body back to 70's. Personally, I think the mild flares and even the "whale tail" as you call it, look pretty darn good. And, I would keep the L88 hood. Waaaaaay less work and $$$$ than trying to put the body back original. And, without the original motor, it still won't be original.

Put disc brakes up front, modernize the motor a bit, at the very least something like AFR heads. Could even go LS.
