Nice article!
How's that Torino chassis working out under your GMC?
It was in print, it must be so.

what setup do you use to tow the corvette? Newbie here, thinking along the same veins, want to tow my '67 firebird (convertible). Lots of cruise-in opportunities around!

Jim,
Pulling a Corvette behind a GMC is very beautiful and eye catching.

Thanks Jim. The 67 was originally 2 spd auto, and came to me with a TH350. I assume the driveline will have to disconnect to tow it 4 down. Built and dropped in a 400 to replace the 326. For many years now I wanted to install the Keisler 5 spd conversion kit, but big money and time. OBTW, grew up in Toledo, decades ago I was an Ohio State student while working for the State Rep from Brook Park - the Hon Rocco J Colonna.

What a small world.
Unhooking the drive shaft isn't a big problem. When we pull the Vega We carry three 2x10 that are put in front of the right rear tire then drive the GMC foreward rolling the Vega tire up on the 2x10s. Then do the drive shaft.
