New project. Its been a while since I finished up my Trans Am SacrilEdge (you can do a search on this forum), and now it is time to give my old '72 vette a little McLuv'n.

I am chronicalling the whole thing on Youtube (check out my channel Mcgyverdude) and hopefully I'll take more photos than I did on my Trans Am.

I've bought a wrecked, low mileage 2002 Z06 and my goal is to gut in and do a body transplant. This is a bit more aggressive that the Trans Am, so lets see how i do...

So much yes!!! That 2002-2004 LS6 is one of my favorite motors of all time.

No kidding! I wish I could find them in a 20X13 size.

Just found this thread quite by accident.

I'm doing a very similar project to you nearby (Georgetown), converting an existing C3 frame with C6 cradle assemblies. Bringing wonderful C6 technology to the C3 Corvette. It is simple in concept, but quite difficult in practice. If you need more hands with a task, please feel free to contact.

Looks like a lot of neat projects here at Pro-Touring!
