The
car is painted the original Silver Frost Metallic with ’68
Maroon interior.
Painted by River City Paint in Sacramento. Interior is by Tom's
Auto Trim in North Highlands. Jim Galatioto, owner of ATO Transmissions,
built the C6 Trans. with Torrington bearings through-out to reduce
friction drag.
We have changed quite a few items since the last run, included are 4.11
gears, aluminum 9”case, and 28 x 11.5 x 15 tires. We also moved
the battery to the trunk and installed an electric water pump. We changed
over to a manual valve body transmission with a trans-brake. We also
had to install a race seat, due to the fact that my head was going
into the rear seat area when I was leaving off the line. The car weighed
3080 before the changes. This is with me out of the car. Now it weighs
3020.
