The images aren't the best but they'll do for now. We've been busy assembling the chassis for my LS6 powered '63 Grand Sport Corvette. With the help of a couple pals and the use of their truck and trailer, the tube frame was picked up on the 24th of April. Weekends and occaisional weeknights of "play time" since then have yielded what you see here but the pictures do it no justice. It looks really sweet in person! The frame was designed using blueprints from the original GS but upfitted for suspension parts from a '96 Corvette which have been cleaned and upgraded.
The body is finished and is in the primer/blocking stages.

Very nice Mark. No problem on hosting the pics.
Nice garage too Andy! I see the Ceramix pads back there. Is that what you went with or are those for another car?

Mark.....Are you going to use coil overs at the rear too or are you going to use the transverse spring?

Thanks for the "Garage" compliments! A pretty nice environment to work in.
Right now the rear spring is the OEM monoleaf. Mark was talking about possibly modifing the car to rear coil overs later.
May be able to put the engine in this weekend!
