You may or may not have seen this custom.

This car was built by N2A motors (No Two Alike).

Cost USD$40,000 over cost of new

Corvette C6 (MSRP USD$44,000).

PLUS all costs of getting it on road over here & RHD...

(would probably just get a modded R35 for that!)

Anyway...

The company is planning a production run of about 100 vehicles.

It sits on a Corvette C6 chassis, front styled like a '57 Chevy, side like a '58, rear like a '59.

Hence the designation '789'.

I like it, but there is something that ain't quite right...

What do you guys think?

I think you've been slapped down by photobucket, that's what I think.

Reminds me of this.

It kinda works, i'd like to see the car in one solid colour to get a better idea of its proportions.

I love the sexy 59 ass and the 57 front also looks ok. Front wheel arches need massaging and the rear half arches are too high.

Interesting.

hmm, it would seem that I have, in fact, been a recipient of said slap down.

Never mind, that is the vehicle in question. Bit bloody expensive too!

    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
    • Keeping in mind that for most people this is a week to month long job!
    • Its also worth mentioning that 30 years after it left the factory and god knows how many missed oil changes since, there is every possibility that one or more lifters are ticking because they are sticky/gummed up. To resolve that you need to pull the cams then pull each lifter, disassemble, clean, reassemble, soak in oil and re-install, and they should come up good as new.
