Corvette Grand Sport Replica Vintage Road Race Car
This is a replica Corvette Grand Sport Vintage road racecar that was raced from 1963-67.
This car is street legal and has a license and registration.It has the following safety items; headlights, parking
light, taillights, directional light front and rear, horn, license light in the rear and windshield wipers.
Construction started with a 4” tube frame,like the original Grand Sports. It was first zinc primed and then
painted in semi-gloss Dupont Imron. Corvette C-4 suspension was added to the front and rear.
Front: Used Corvette polished aluminum upper and lower A-Arms, spindles, new rotors, calipers and pads. Non-
corvette parts: Sweet steering rack, Alden Eagle adjustable coil over shocks, custom made tie rods and sway bar,
links, brackets and bushings.
Rear: rebuilt used Corvette rear end (3:07 gears), ½ shafts (cut) 1 ½”: new u-joints, rebuilt wheel spindles
housings, 2 upper and lower T-Arms rods with poly bushings, 2 new rotors, calipers an pads.
Non-Corvette parts are the 2 rear Alden Eagle adjustable coil over shocks, custom strut and toe rods.
Transmission: Corvette 700-R4 Professionally rebuilt with 2000 RPM converter, with a manual overdrive switch, and
custom trans. cooler. Also new u-joints.
Non-Corvette: Hurst Mega shifter, custom transmission mounts.
I have the standard transmission clutch mounts on the frame as well as the standard clutch and brake pedals for
conversion to a standard transmission.
Tires and Wheels: Wheels are American Torque Thrust 7” front 8 ½” rear with
B.F. Goodrich tires.
Body: The body was a one-piece kit car fiberglass body that was professionally modified. The first modification
was to reinforce the door areas and the dash to accommodate original 67 Corvette coupe doors with 63-67 Corvette
hinges and latches. The second was to modify the windshield and rear window areas to accommodate new reproduction
glass windshield and rear window. The third was to move the gas filler area from the side to the rear and relocate
the racing fuel cell to the rear, rather than behind the seats. The fourth modification was to fill in the rear
opening for the transmission cooler and put an opening for the Corvette gas lid and gas tank filler area. The
fifth was the grill vents in the front and side of the hood, which were custom made of fiberglass, (instead of
metal) and bonded to the openings in the hood. The entire body was reworked before being primed with epoxy primer
then painted in base coat Le Mans metallic blue. A custom white racing stripe was then applied before the entire
car was clear coated.
The front and side fender grill are custom made except for the following which are all GM Corvette parts; front
emblem, door handles and locks, side view mirror, rear emblem, gas door lid, parking and taillight lenses, license
plate bezel and light, and Grand Sport emblems.The entire vehicle weight 2540lbs.
The headlight system and clear plastic covers are custom made.
Interior: The instrument cluster is 1965-67 Corvette that was restored and the gauges were re-screened. The tach
red line at 6000 RPM and the oil pressure gauge is 80 lbs.
The steering column is from a 1965-66 Corvette, with a new horn button. The door panels are new 67 Al Knock deluxe
door panels and custom Al Knock carpet with new 63-67 Corvette carpet pads and center cushion. The door vent
window crank, locks, and open knobs are Corvette. All three wiring harnesses (motor, dash, and rear) are 66-67
Corvette wiring harnesses. All gauges and instruments (wiper, headlight, lighter, ignition) work. The door
weather-strip is new and so are the coupe window felts. The door and vent window are Corvette. The seat belts are
racing harnesses and a two-piece roll bar is mounted to the frame. The seats are adjustable cloth/vinyl.
Motor: 350 Chevy 4-bolt main with new Corvette aluminum head with roller rockers. The intake is aluminum with a
600 CMF Holley and open element air cleaner. The distributor is a mechanical tach drive with 2 ½” exhaust
manifold and a custom stainless side exhaust under the body so they will not burn the legs of the passenger or
driver upon exit or entry.
The radiator was new and has a Plainless electric cooling fan with a thermostat relay. The valve covers were off of
a 84 Corvette.
The power brake booster is a reproduction for 63-67 Corvette with a dual master cylinder and custom brake and fuel
lines.
I have numerous photos and a notebook of reciepts at all stages of the construction of the vehicle from the bare
frame to completion.

GM, UAW poaching Nissan workers in Tennessee
Tue, Sep 8 2015General Motors and the United Auto Workers are going on a recruitment drive at the Spring Hill factory in Tennessee, and they're hoping to poach some skilled workers from Nissan's nearby plant in Smyrna, TN. The General and the union even bought a billboard advertising for industrial electricians near the Japanese automaker's facility, according to the Daily News Journal. The reason for the billboard was simple. "GM was short of electricians," said Tim Stannard, the president of the UAW local at Spring Hill, to the Daily News Journal. The factory currently builds the Chevrolet Equinox but has a contract to assemble the next generation of Ecotec engines and the Cadillac XT5, which replaces the SRX. Thanks to the $185-million deal, employment there is expected to double by May 2016, according to Stannard, with roughly 1,800 additional union jobs. Beyond just several billboards, GM has job postings online for the Spring Hill plant looking for workers with specific skills. There has already been some interest in the positions among Nissan employees, Stannard indicated. According to a recent study by the Center for Automotive Research, the average GM worker currently makes $58 an hour, including benefits. Comparatively, Nissan pays an average of $42 an hour with benefits. The General's number could change in the coming weeks because its contract with the UAW is about to expire, and higher wages are among the major negotiating points.
PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
2020 Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban and GMC Yukon all spied with production lights
Fri, Mar 22 2019One of our spy photographers just caught a smattering of full-size GM SUVs out testing, including the Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban and GMC Yukon. Previous spy photos of the next-generation of these big GM SUVs have revealed that GM is going with an independent rear suspension design, and these shots confirm the news once again with our best look at the hardware yet. Check them out from the rear, lined up like ducks in a row to see the beefy control arms down there. This will undoubtedly give the big SUVs a more compliant ride, and should bring it back into touch with the refinement from the Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator. The new bits we get to see with these shots are production headlights and taillights that are shaping up to look pretty neat. Most distinguishable are the GMC Yukon's LED DRLs. These look a lot like the C-shaped LEDs outlining the headlights on the Sierra, but they have an extra LED strip on top of the C. The parts of the taillights that we can see look significantly different than that found on the Sierra, showing GM is planning on having a great deal of differentiation there. We can sort of see through the mesh covering the grille to what appears to be a classic horizontal bar style front opening. Chevy is predictably dialing the crazy LED strip design back for the Tahoe and Suburban. The parts that are lit up look a whole lot like the headlight fixtures on the 2019 Silverado. That truck uses a stack of lights with the actual headlights separated from the DRLs. We can see the same thing going on here, with the headlight up top and curved LED DRL strip sitting below. It's tough to say if the designs are exactly alike, but we expect to see an extremely Silverado-esque look once all the camouflage comes off. Chevrolet's taillight design differs from its donor truck like the GMC, showing off a curved, vertical series of LEDs out back. Once production lights start popping up like this, we know the vehicle is moving closer to its end game. A reveal sometime later this year could be in the cards for GM's next batch of full-size SUVs. It certainly needs them quick, as Ford rockets ahead with increased Expedition production announced earlier this week.
