This is a car I fixed and gave to my son when he got his driver license in 1997. Can you believe a 16 year old didn't kill his first ride? It's still here and in great shape. He picked the color and paint scheme from a 1996 Corvrtte Gran Sport Commerative edition. I recently added a 70 455 with 400 turbo w/switch pitch and a Chevy 12 bolt 355 posi. 8 inch American Racing Torq Thrust "M" 17X8chrome wheels with 215-55-17 on front and 235-55-17 on rear. Runs and drives great. The steering wheel is a Buick!

Very nice fellas. I kinda like the white stripe. Not the usual Chevelle SS stripes everyone puts on everything.

Very tastefully done!

Saw it in person before Mike had it the engine in it, it is spotless.
So, Mike, did she get a little sideways on you first time you drove it?
Your son didn't wreck it I heard, but you almost did!:3gears:

Thanks for the kind compliments folks.
Isn't Jim Lore's car really something????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My car is just an old Cutlass I did a little work to, but Jim's car is a tri power 442, very nice Jim. How long have you had that?
Yep Roger, I just about put her in the weeds trying out the new power train, I haven't tried it again since the new wheels and tires went on, but I will some time. Something about big block power makes my foot heavy. The devil makes me do it!!
