I'm glad I found this site. Most of the Corvette sites I found earlier were way less concerned with the Pro-Touring/restomod style cars that appeal to me. To introduce myself, I'm an old fart (well, 53) in San Jose Ca. I recently got an "offer I couldn't refuse" on a complete, but not running or matching numbers '65 convertible (for $12,000!!). That was perfect for me since I'm not a "matching numbers, keep it original" kind of guy anyway. So I sold my pro-touring '70 Chevelle convertible, and have a nice nest egg of cash to put towards seriously modifying the Corvette. Based on my experience with the Chevelle, I would REALLY like this build to based on a serious performance chassis, the Chevelle had a noodle of a frame. So for my first question, would anyone with experience with aftermarket frames please let me know any recommendations or concerns that they have encountered? I'm looking at the SR III chassis pretty seriously and would love feedback on both the frame itself, and also the company (customer support, etc.) or suggestions of other frame suppliers that you'd recommend. If I've done my signature correctly, there should be a link to my homepage with pics of the Chevelles, as well as the new (to me) vette.
Thanks,
