1968 L88 cars

[Pantera]

So when I found this site and all the great guys here I did my research on the L-88 Vette and finally located the guy listed on the Title. I was postive that the vette was a real L-88 car from the factory. When I finally got to chat with Colby Hillman the 1st car owner, he dashed my mood when he informed me that it was just a real 435hp car when he bought it new. Bummer...! I was so disapointed. I just knew it was a real L-88 but it turned out that he had ordered all the L-88 parts from Chev in 1971 and put them on it and raced it (including the motor). I have all the log books for the car and it raced a lot at Mid-Ohio near where Colby is from.

It is still a neat car. every piece of the body work will come off. and leave just the drivers compartment. I even made the doors removable with pins that replace the hinges. Makes it easier to work on.

There are collectors for old race cars just like we on here are nutty about Muscle cars. I hate it but I didn't take too many pic back then. If I could only show the ones in my head. The memories I have are so vivid. Shame I can't show them to you.
