It does kinda look like a Big Daddy Roth kinda car lol. The rear wheels and tires are too big for the car they look over size to say the least but thats what the customer wanted:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He plans to take it to Pavilions and cars and coffee and caffeine when its all done. It needs paint so it still be a few months then it be super hot so he may not drive it much tell it starts cooling down again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bromley's Corvettes Posted April 10, 2014 Author Share Posted April 10, 2014 The car really is a 80 it had a vert kit done on it years ago. It has a soft top but with the tubs and roll bar it wont fit now so its just going to be open all the time. He does not mind he has 15 other cars so not like hes worried about when it rains lol.
