The plot thickens on the 'Vette. My brother is buying the other one, helping me out.

We're putting the numbers-matching one back to a good roller status in the original Daytona Yellow with a fresh interior, and the stock hood back on it...and we're flipping it.

The other one I can build out the way I want to with the proceeds, and not feel guilty for putting an "East Coast Customs" touch on it, because I want a heavily breathed on mouse motor, and I want to modernize it a bit further inside, but it already has air and all options (I will keep it totally stock outside).

The second car will come with a zillion extra parts, and help both builds.

I wanna put a later dash with a glovebox in my keeper. I'm gonna fill it with dynamat, and put a serious amp and some quality speakers in. Some modern race seats, harnesses, and sink an iPad into a custom console for Nav/Music/Web/Skype all in one. Just throw a MiFi hotspot in the glovebox, and go. With less than a dozen wires, the car is literally wired for everything! The less tech, the better...but of course an Alpine alarm will at least give me key fob control over the door locks, and help secure it.

Gonna put a sick red candy/flake/pearl on the 100% stock body, subtle rake achieved just with the tires will be the only external "mod", save a polished aluminum Lemans-style fliptop gas fill on the rear deck.

The later model 454 BB that comes with the second Vette will go in my 71 Chevelle, which will be made into an SS454 tribute, since it already has ladders, a brute posi, scattershield, shaft hoop, etc., and would make better use of that Rat.
