Hi Guys,

I wanted to share our next big project. As many of you know last year, we launched a new car line called Modern Muscle with three models: 69 camaro, 70-71 cuda, and 69-70 Mustang Fastback.

Then we signed a licensing agreement with Mr. Norm for all of our mopars so we have a void in our Modern Muscle Line.

We are proud to announce that we are adding 63-67 corvettes to the line-up. These cars will be C-4, C-5, or C-6 based builds depending on our client's preferences.

Our prototype #001 car will be a completely C-6 based LS-9 1967 corvette coupe. We are using a brand new LS-9 engine from GM Performance Parts & all C-6 vette components. I am sharing some pictures of the progress we have made already. I will continue to add pictures along the way. We will be unveiling this car at SEMA 2009.

Thanks

No, I have found a shop that has done a bunch of them.. The mid-years look so sweet.. We are excited to be building this one.

We are developing a complete overall deal for the line. Our first body will incorporate both but we will have a repo deal to sell when this project is completed. Our plans call to have a completely removable floor, rollcage, and body from the chassis with a goal weight of 3000 lbs. The quality will be very good, stronger and lighter than an original car.

Of course, it will be red........

Thanks
Mike
