The car looks great! It is simply amazing what Nabers can do. To say the car was rough is an understatement.

Was that the car that was at the November Chevy-Vettefest?

Yes

Amazing transformation, she's beautiful...almost hard to believe its the same car...Thanks for posting the photo

As far as I know, the rear and trans are both original.
Did they use an original L88 motor or crate engine?
Or was the original motor tracked down and reunited?

He was asking a pretty penny before the restoration, I wonder what the price tag is now..

Please post more photos as they become available
Would love to see the interior and engine bay

Thanks again for posting

Orlando, the original motor is long gone. I believe that the price now is around 500K. Go to proteams website, maybe there is more pictures there.

Are there any pictures of the undercarriage of that car? I believe we outfitted it with one of our new Corvette exhaust systems and since it is such a high profile car I wanted to see how it looks.

At the risk of stirring debate, someone is going to judge the stamp pad at an NCRS event this year (can't imagine who that might be) so how do you think it will go? It is, admittedly, a replacement motor, so, how should it be judged? Based on the pictures (bad move) will it pass muster?
