Let me be the first to say Holy Sh##!!!

Congrats to Tony for becoming the caretaker of such a cool piece of Muscle Car History and to Brian, Joe and the crew for having the opportunity to make a near perfect example even better.

Can't wait to see this baby in person!

I contacted George Lyons who is currently on a business trip and without computer access. George will reply to the post in a few days and will have plenty of info to add to this very unique car. Stay tuned!!!!!

WOW! What a great car and I love the functional hood and Corvette air cleaner. It looks like a very high quality hood, especially from that time period. I bet it's a runner too. I've always put good running L-72's at high 11's to low 12's. This car would have to be good for 11.40's to 11.60's on a good day. I built an L-88 to factory specs about 20 years ago and dropped it into a heavier Chevelle where it was good for solid 11.70's.
