Thats a pretty good drive, it must have been a great drive back with a pint between your legs!

This truck will be our first build of this caliber. Its getting a LS6 with a small cam, LG coil overs, 4l60 and 13" rims in the rear. The truck will have Active Handling, Traction Control and Tire pressure sensors. We are going to incorporate the C5 Cluster into a OEM looking cluster.

Our goal is to debut it at LS Fest Bowling Green, KY Sept. 8-10th. We will enter it into the autocross competition along with our C5 Drift Vette. If your in the area don't miss this Event!

We have our shop truck under way as well. 1971 SB. its going back all OEM at this point.

FRCvette · 02-14-2017, 11:25 AM

Very cool Corvettes and C10's. Doesn't get any better than that. Lol. I will be in BG to check out debut.

The chassis is a piece of art work. We will be ordering two more this year from Dave.
