a hemi powered corvette gasser will be awesome, i am tuned in to this.. i have a max wedge powered 57 chevy gasser on my bench now ?

Something new and different doing that Corvette as a gasser.

Cool project. We rarely see the first-series Corvettes done as any kind of race cars.

It's a natural, as the Miss Deal frame is actually a first-gen Corvette.

Thanks guys. The Miss Deal chassis fits into the body without any mods.

If I remember correctly, the Miss Deal chassis is the Parts Pack chassis that is based off a Corvette unit.

The parts pack chassis is naked rails, and includes the Corvette's independent front suspension...with no floorpan.

Going forward . Just a mock up . I will need to enlarge hole in hood and make some room in the body for the headers .

Great idea. You always manage to come up with some interesting projects. Will be following.

Thanks Bob. I am having to redo the roof as the clear bubbled up.
