Stepho's new ride!

[stepho]

Its not an f-body....





It is a 1975 Corvette... which was the least powerful corvette (rated at 165 horse power), but I figure I am making a little more than that...

In 1975 they ran dual exhaust into a single cat and then split for dual exit, well mine has no cat and true dual exhaust. It also has edelbrock heads and carburetor, and headers of unknown make.

Its a little rough around the edges but I love it.

Very nice. I always wanted a '73. Love those tailights!

[poormillionaire2]

Nice pickup. Time to drop an LS7 in it.

Yeah, unfortunately one of the tail lights is from a different year, its too small and its actually a reverse light painted red.

Yeah the body doesn't rust, but there is plenty of rust on the firewall and down in the cowl. I was lucky enough to find a rust free frame, my brother was not as fortunate with his 76 (as seen in the background).

oh.. that sucks. i forgot that you have snow..and salt.

hawaii just has sea-salt so vettes dont rust too much as long as they're inland..

Not so much snow, I had a Caprice from Georgia that spent some time in Floridia. I guess during it's stint in GA it was right up on the coastline. The finish on the car was the wierdest thing I'd seen to date with the amount of oxidation and corrosion from ocean water.

Yeah no snow and salt in florida lol.

sea-salt but i live pretty far inland so its not a big deal. I think its just rusty from water sitting in there.

I've got a buddy who has a 67 and a 72.... I'd love to have either.

Nice car.

Thank you.

That makes three corvettes in my family. My 75, my brother has a 76, and my mom drives a 04.
