C2 of Year Finalist (appearance mods) 2019
These are some of the ones that I brought home my neighbors must’ve love this.
My favorite corvette junkyard was in Pandel PA I’ve became friends with the owner and his wife and was able to buy many of the Corvette bodies that he had in the junkyard most were C1 and C2 he would store them on top of tractor-trailer bodies because people were coming over his fence stealing parts he had at least 50 bodies in his yard. I think I bought half of them over the years.

C2 of Year Finalist (track prepared) 2019
the neatest junk yard I frequented as a youngster was Floyd Richardson's in bennettssville, SC. old Floyd had hundreds of c-1's and maybe 50 c-2's .. Some of the c-1's had been there long enough for trees 6" in diameter to grow out of their engine compartments. that was about 1970.
The compleat 548 engine in my Five-Seven Shaker came from Verbe. The correctly dated generator for my FI '60 came from Verbe. Laying around there were W motors and Hemis. The clutch fan for my FI '60 came from a '61 348 car at Verbe's lot.
If you needed it, it was at Verbe Temple's lot. The challenge was finding it.
