Hello all
Has anybody known any one to attempt this kit build?
Or have a link to an online blog about building one?

I just contacted Vannacor's corvette and they are still makeing the kit but the Old man has passed away and she the surviving spous doesnt know much about the kit at all.
Other than she will still make them.

I am very interested in this kit any info would be greatly appreciated.  

Thanks
Dennis

Yes, I have one of the 10 special ones made in 1989 costing 70 grand back then.

Am thinking of building a new one with better running gear. Done lots of research. Am on holiday right now but home next week  - can chat and post photos etc.

To be honest, to do it right, plan on 40 grand.Correct wheels and tyres are 10 grand.
Each corner of lights, now not available - you gotta wait till someone totals a real car without damaging the lights - but anyway - 2 grand a corner. Have thought out ways around the above, so can chat about it all.

Perfect donor is 1994/5/6. Rag top.

Regards, Hugo.

PS, forget the bsssht people will tell you about ruining a vette, driving a copy etc.......its all bollox. We have a real one ( 1986) and they are crap !!

Driving the C4 Rossa is mindblowing - just sooooooo much fun. And 25 mpg with no cam belts to change with engine out and a new water pump at the same time - figure 10 grand at a garage.

PS, forgot to say, best not to get one of these if you are camera shy, girlfriend shy, questions shy, etc.

Going out for a loaf of bread takes about 3 hours after you have answered a million questions and posed  with everyone for photos.

If you wanna go anywhere quickly - take the old panelvan !!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi wow I almost gave up on this thread.
As is evident from my last post thank you for posting!

Your car looks amazing would love to see more of it!

Would also like to talk more about the car is there another web site you hang out on more?

Need more info about build, I would go with Hard top not a Convertible as that's what I have for Downers.

Please contact me with a PM to exchange contact info
