If you are interested in Vintage roadracing a Corvette V8 . this car is an unusual opportunity.

 We brought this race car up to our restoration shop from the SouthWest recently.

.

The seller said this car was a 4 speed car and was raced in Texas for many years by an older gentleman. who . when he had a leg problem. changed it to a high performance automatic . The seller said he planned to go roadracing. but had to change his plans. and sold me the car

He had this to say about the car :

He pretty much covered it well. except for the motor. turned out to be a 383 stroker

The car is a very well thought out racer from the early days .

 when it was a 4 speed and 327 or 350 cu inches.

We put a new master cylinder. and new dated 5 point belts in it . changed the oil and checked the brakes. and all . he fluids. etc and took it to TGPR for some laps for an assessment.

Car ran strong. handled good. and had no bad habits.

Everything went well. until one piston grenaded (was a GM cast HC dome) leaving just the rod and wrist pin. the rest went into the crankcase

A  walk around Video of the car is here.        https://www. youtube. com/watch?v=BcuPiSv3gD8

We have just removed and torn down the motor. and the block is junk. but we did find that it was a super well built motor that appears to be built about 2005 using the best stuff available but should have had forged pistons. It had very little time on it . due to the owners age and poor health.

This is a a good restoration project. . it is available now. until we start work on it.

It can easily be retuned to a 4 speed car. as the clutch pedal is still there.

We found a number on the roll bar and got a replacement logbook.   The roll bar needs modification. but the car otherwise passed 2014 Annual Tech
