Hello Fellow Collectors. I had a "Old Guy" syndrome happen and found me a new toy. This little guy had been sitting in a shed since 1997 and needed a touch of TLC. But after a few days of tinkering the "Beast" has come back to life.
1977 Corvette, L-82(with several upgrades, lol) engine, Munchie M-21 4 speed tranny and 308's in the rear.
With a little more work, it will be "Sweet" again, but for now, it's about a mid 10 second machine(10.7 average out of 5 runs) with a lot of potential to get touch faster.
Best Regards and wish you all a great day

Love it. Sold my '77 L-82 a few years ago, by the way, it was also white. I had a lot of fun with it, especially after blowing the original engine, then replacing it with a 383 stroker. I hope you have as much fun with yours as I did with it.

Thanks Thomas and Dave...
@Dave, had about 2 months now, just starting to really get the true feel, lol :-)
What a SWEET ride Kerry!! 10.7 ain't too shabby!
Thanks jscott, it will get better, hopefully, but with 450+ HP on the beast, I should drop time down some, I wanna to get lower 10's, maybe break into the 9's lol
Thanks Michael, very appreciated!!

First car i was ever scared in what a beautiful beast
A superb toy! Looks already perfect to me :-)
Nice wheels Kerry. You're going to need a Led Zeppelin cassette to go with that bad boy!
Looks like it's ready to fly off the pavement! Way too cool-looking, Kerry! [;>)
Love your new toy Kerry!
Love this! Maybe you could have someone ride with you and "clock" the speed.;) :) I'm sorry for the pun but it would be great!
I'd love to see the inside too.

Love those Corvette, I've had a 1959 and 1992
That’s as fast as the 2019 ZL1 with over 700hp. You must have a ton of mods. Keep it in the road.
