We get the 67 L88 ringing and driving! Just in time to make the race. But of course we run into issues. The car fell off the lift and needed fiberglass work done to the left front fender. Little hick up wont slow us down! We will be racing this car on the next video!

Awesome! The 67 Corvette has to be the best looking design that ever came out of Detroit... I mean, really the 63-67 but the 67 pretty much was the pinnacle. I'm really glad it didn't get smashed... and especially that it didn't fall on you. Looking forward to the track video and thanks for the update!

I loved the way the front end lifted up when you mashed the gas pedal. That thing is going to be a beast. 67 is my favorite year

I'm really glad you didn't get hurt . All in all it could've been so much worse. The black one was my favorite but now the 67 is!!!! It's turning out so well!!!!

Agree. That could turned out really bad. Hopefully this was a wake up call to get the lift adjusted/repaired to lift evenly and also add some lift adapters on the arms.

Life-long Chevy man. THIS epitomizes that life-long love affair for me. Right or wrong, Corvettes ARE my favorite high-performance cars, ever. '63-'67's, like this. As well as the '68-'72 Mako Sharks. Too close to call for me, to say which ones I love more. Yes, there ARE faster cars that have come along, since. But not one of them is cooler, or sexier, IMHO.

Hi gordo: It is like a slow mo thing. I remember one time long ago when we had twin post inground lifts. One of the lifts with a truck on it and because the tech forgot to lock-out the posts, overnight one post bled down so in the morning we found the truck in the next bay on it's roof. Not scary, but pretty funny ........ if you're not the one who has to pay twin wreckers to get it out.

Bro i Just LOVE how you modified the old side pipes with the 2 mufflers , i flows great and it sounds EXCELLENT! Is this basically the same way you did with the black 69 L88 right? A pair of dynomax bullet mufflers and stainless bros muffler’s, now just painted black and located a little different, right? I love it bro, can't wait to see this beast in the 1/4!

Looking good Jordan. This car is going to get a lot of love from fans. And probably some hate from your opponents when you start kicking a.. That converter definitely sounds really loose. Still wondering about your possibly using a much tighter converter and “controlling” it with some dump valves? Have other racers tried this (assuming of course it’s legal)?

Fantastic car , wow that thing moves i was wondering if i could get you to make me the same side pipes, i have side pipes on my car and i agree totally with what you sade about them being very restrictive, i have some sanderson 1 7/8 shortys with 3 inch exit, was wondering if you could make me some pipes . 3 inch to the side then i guess the 4 mufflers have to be a little smaller to fit under the factory covers ... Do you guys do work for other people . Thank you. Randy
