SCCA Corvette

Postby cagee13 » Tue Dec 25, 2012 9:22 pm

I decided to build up one of the SCCA Vettes that HRWJim has been running around here doing and this is my "cheap" version of one from just parts laying around. The body has been in the scrap bin for a couple months now and I decided to resurrect it for this build. Its missing about every detail piece except the top and windshield. This is a fantasy livery but the silver with the red roof paint scheme was loosely based on a Corvette that ran at Sebring I believe in '63 (can't remember for sure now). It is on a Sebring adjustable chassis that I had sitting around and it has Carrera '57 Chevy steel wheels and tires on it with one of Mark's Slim can motors in it.

Yep. Really nothing better than putting something together out of leftovers.

That looks great, I like the look without the chrome parts.

I like it Chris, now you just have to make the trip to run it here. How do you like the Sebring chassis with Marks motor. Jim
