Well,
I finally after 5 1/2 years of building and restoring got the vette on the road! What a great feeling to be able to drive it!
This is a Motion CLONE / TRIBUTE, not the real thing. I was inspired by Dan McMichael's Vette many years ago. I did modifications to be different enough to be sure that his Original Motion Vette stayed unique.
This car was bought with , no engine, no transmission, no interior, no wiring... It was just a shell on a solid frame.
I have had to buy EVERY single part for this car, which is an expensive way to go !
I want to say THANKS to all here that have helped me along the way!
I couldn't have done it without ya !!!
You can check out my restoration at the site below.
