Thanks for the comment and compliment, it means a lot. My next project is always driven by my last project. Being a one man operation I can’t afford a major miscalculation on what may be appealing to others. I have four ZL-1 blocks left so I’m sure a ZL-1 block will be involved. Most of my buddies locally told me I was making a mistake building this car the way I built it. It needed after market everything , interior, gauge cluster, gauges , etc. And that everything under the hood needed to be chromed and polished. I see a lot of cars done that way and it just did not fit in my game plan. I tried to keep all the things I love about the way an original ZL-1 looks with some more modern technologies hidden underneath. Probably the biggest change I made to the interior was moving the center A/C vent so I could use a non-A/C dash pad. I never liked the way A/C dash pads look. I’d really like to build something more affordable but when you replace 129.00 gas tanks with 929.00 gas tanks or 2,500.00 tranys with 4,000.00 tranys or 300.00 shocks with 1,000.00 shocks, ect ect it makes it tough to do. Thanks again

Now that is a great looking engine compartment. Love the L-88 Vette air cleaner, serpentine belt, headers, valve covers, etc!
