Less than 500 miles on rebuilt 383 stroker 420 hp, new Richmond gear 4+1 Quick shift trans, 4:11 posi 1st four gears, 11″ Hays clutch w/ Lakewood scatter shield, 2″ chrome Hooker headers, disc brakes, rarely driven since rotisserie restoration, muscle class show winner, same owner 30 years, 2 sets of wheels Corvette rally and American racing. To tell you a bit about the car that I know. It’s original home was Utah. It is a fuelie. It came across to Saskatchewan to a guy who wanted to race it. He got part way into the project and decided to lose his idea. That is when I bought it 24 years ago in 1994. I got it put back to stock locally and restored. It was not the caliber of restoration I wanted so I sent it off to Corvette West in Maple Ridge for a top quality restoration in 2000. When it came back I was so pleased I decided to enter it in the big Sunshine Coast Annual Show where it picked up 1st Place. I haven’t shown it since and just drive it on rare occasions.Come over and drive her home
