You have done an amazing job of turning an very rough and rusty Vette into a beautiful car.

Man, you have done a great job, I will be in Germany around October and I'm shipping my 1978 Corvette with me. Maybe we'll meet up one day at a vintage show or something. Keep us updated.

After runing the car, decided that it is way to slove, my daily drive is a Charger SRT, so my stock Vetta feels slow. The problem is that I am from Europe, so I need a complete sollution, the best would be a turn key engine, that I can replace, the same with trans, if it is needed. So I am looking at minimum 500 bhp and something sticking out of my bonet, as a kid dreamed about superchargers Can you give a helping hand and recomend someone that could build and tune the engine for me. I have seen on ebay auctions like this one, perhaps this is a good solution, what do you think?

Beautiful! What a fantastic job you've done, especially considering how rough the car was and what you've gone through to get parts sent over. I have really enjoyed following along on this build. Inspiring!
