Well done Bao for finding the link and sharing, and thanks too Rad for your cool links with the Corvette setup. The engineering that went into that red car by it's owner is phenomenal! Especially since he did it all himself at home.
Those who haven't read it, get inspired, 28 pages so far of conversion brilliance. :D Interior :D Steering :D External Body :D Internal body & cage :D Hydraulic Handbrake :D Exhaust :D Wheels
Reduce fuel costs by 15-20% & cut emissions by 1/3rd...
