Default Sneak peak @ next wild Vette for SEMA

After the Ferman Chevy UCP show, I delivered 'Love Is Blue' to American Super Cars' new shop in Spring Hill, Fl., to have the damage repaired and to let them repaint the entire car befor the new owner accepts it. (Can't touch up & match that custom 'Kandy' paint job so it will require a full repaint due to the various area's damaged) Man I'm glad the insurance company is picking up the tab for the repairs/repaint on 'LOVE' since I can't do it anymore like in the past.
These are some of the guys who help build the Motion Camaro that wow'd 'em at SEMA two years ago and was later sold at Barrett Jackson for 1/4 million dollars.
While there I saw that wild, black '63 mid engine "V-7 Twin Turbo" they built & had @ SEMA last year that won GM's Design Award for Excellence. Phil had it back for a color sand and major detail prior to being offered at auction next year.
I also was shown their latest custom Vette project they are just beginning, so here are the very first photos of the frame and a few of the rough glass pieces that will be the wild body in the future. You saw it here first on the CorvetteFlorida forum.

The custom tube frame:

The unusal front nose design for the latest mid year Vette project from ASC:


Here's the V-7 Twin Turbo after SEMA last year:

...and as it is being color sanded this month for future sale:

I'll bet that is a fun place to stop in at every once in a while to see what kind of ideas they are working on.
