So today me and my gf had to go c her god father to help him with his fun car to go get every thing done to it(breaks, oil change, rad flush, air filter). So this guys had a '78 Corvette, mint condition, owned since new. 25th aniversary, all original, 350, white vynal interior. SOoo hot. Any ways heres the only pic i could i get with my camera phone(batter crapped out). But yea, i havent driven a v8(350 ci) in about a year n a half or so, i completely forgot how much thouse things pull. He let me smoke the tires a bit and he also let me go sideways with it 2:D.
![]() nice eh? and, it gets better. This guy keep it in storage all year long. Takes it out for the occasional drive(put 25km on it per year now). Its got 74xxxkm all original. And the best part, hez leavin it in his will for my gf. And she told me if she gets it i getta play around with it and fixer up:D. |

chrome dress up kit = pulleys, valve covers, breather valve, airbox, valve cover bolts, airbox wingnut, timming light bracet, timing chain cover, coil cover, distributor cover. It doesnt look to bad if you do it right. We rebuilt a 350 for a truck i did at my highschool, full coustom job. We cut the frame down by 3 feet, relocated the axel and shock mounts, cut and ballanced the drive shaft, rewelded it, made a coustom box, tach moutning plate, hidden gauge cluster, 2 race seats, 5 point harnesses, hand made roll cage, permanent convertable roof, half exhaust with brospeed mufflers off a farrari. But we rebuilt the 350 including head work and we put a chrome dressup kit on it. it looks sooo good. We painted the block with chevy orange paint. chrome with bright orange paint looks good.
