Split-Window Racer Hits the Streets

This 1963 split-window coupe splits in two and the pretty half gets a C4 frame and LS7.

Wow, that thing is awesome. I rarely like fender flares, but those are well done, IMHO.

The LS7 is a bad ****...Good for him, and I’m glad he drives it.

I would love to hear it at an auto cross!

Extremely nice '63 restomod. It's been around for awhile (2012) and has aged very well. It sure doesn't look dated.

If you read the back story on this 'Vette, I don't exactly classify this one into the same old category...

Long time owner, raced the 'Vette the first time around and wanted to continue to do that...

I tend not to like these, but in my opinion, this '63 is really nicely done and looks great as well.
