Man, am I excited about this car!! The rear end will be done this week. The windshield frame begins next week or maybe even the end of this week. Starting to look like a ZR1 with that wide back end!!

Thanks for the intrest. Dont forget I have said they need to be refinished. Pictures look 90-100% but they are closer to 70%. some one ran these on the street for a few years. Not sure what I am going to do with them just yet. I will let you guys know if I decide to sell and or trade them - you guys are doing great things with these preproduction cars - good luck with your builds!

The top fit like a glove on the first try. The geometry of the tub was not compromised when they tried to crush it with the front end loader. It should move fairly fast now.

More, more, more pix and details.
I'd love to know all the details of why GM decided to destroy the prototypes and everything that happened after that.
