I did the same thing. Worked for 2 years on my car (avatar is the engine) and 500 miles after finishing it's SOLD!

Hey,
I have a 68 that I'm thinking about going Resto Mod. You've done a lot of things that I'll be doing. Have any helpful hints. Was the Tremec 5 spd. a problem to install. And did you think about rear coil overs ?? The ( Vette Magazine ) did a C3 resto and had a lot of good stuff. Will make this short. But, probably have a ton of questions, if you have the time.. I have (2) 68 vette's A 454 which is the reso mod project. And a 427 (#'s matching tri carb car). Will post pics if I can figure out how to do. Thanks, Annon ( 6T8 Vette )

The tremec conversion was a piece of cake! Happy to help where I can with answers. Just contact me. Best advice I can lend is start with a lot of cash

Stunning red missile!

rthouck

this the one on ebay?

mskvettefan

Yes, one in the same... thanks! If it does not sell, I am going to install the Tilt / Telescopic steering column and just enjoy it the rest of the year... Maybe take it to Carlisle as I am only just a few miles away.

Wow! The only thing keeping it from being my dream C3 is not knowing what kind of power you're putting down. Any Dyno pulls or at least some estimates? But man...the look is spot on!

Nice!
