When our shop restored the body for 001 back in 1979, we discovered the car is close to a 9/10 scale version. There was no internet and no books available so the research was painstaking with constant comparisons with stock Vettes. Funny, you keep saying Avon tyres and you can clearly see ….YEAR on it. Originals would have had Firestones or Goodyears
I am very impressed with the execution of the Grand Sport by Superformance. I have a question about the engine. If I wanted to equip this car with an LS7, could you accommodate a dry sump oil system? Any preference from Superformance on dry sump or wet sump?
We couldn't agree more! The execution is pretty close to flawless with upgrades where they are needed, and the upgrades tastefully integrated. An LS7 dry sump is not a problem in this platform... Our personal preference is always dry sump where it fits the needs and budget of the customer. The LS7 drysump is honestly as compact as possible, the GM engineers spent a lot of time designing it into the Corvette and that is one element that makes cars equipped with it so robust on track!

The Pearl white SPF in our video has Avon tires on it. At one point they had tire stickers on them to look like Goodyears. Thanks!

Stock '64 Vette will go up in value over time.
