----John,,,Had a twin back in Classic Motors days except the interior was white. Had 456 gears and light flywheel from racing days and was a beast. Sold to Jim Krughoff one of our best customers. Always thought it was a cool combo.
----Are the bolt-ons original or repops?.....Bill S

I just found out my Corvette was in New Hampshire a couple of owners ago in the mid 90s. I just wonder if any one remembers it?
