    I wonder what you would think of Electron Blue with a saddle (TAN) interior? Is that PPG basecoat/clearcoat? Thanks Brian76

    Hi Frank,

    Yes I'm happy with the sidepipes.

    Love to see pictures of your 73.

    Regards

    Hello sir! Just found your reply! I will check out the dougs headers. Are you happy with the sidepipes? Again, congrats on a beautiful Vette! Look forward to mine approaching that! Awesome!

    Hi Frank,

    Thanks. The pipes are Dougs Headers, there the same as Hooker but these ones actually fit!!!
    The rear wheels are TT11 18x9.5 with 5.25" backspace. The front are 17x8 with 4.0" backspace. The tires are Nitto NT555 275 rear and 245 front.
    Calipers are Wilwood D8s.
    I have done a full frame off rebuild over the last 9 years. I'm currently replacing the engine, transmission and diff ratio.
    I'm in Australia so it get quite expensive having to ship everything from the US.
    See the link below of the rebuild on an Australian Forum.
    Regards
    Brad

    Beautiful car! I'm boing a total resto on my 73. What sidepipes, mufflers?, wheels and tires? I put the Wilwood 6 piston/4 piston set on. Respectfully, Frank
