Red, white and blue pearl painted by Eric Smith, 1967.
1967 Corvette, my first funny car. I used an aftermarket Kellison body. (http://www.kellisonclassiccars.com/ or http://www.kellisoncars.com/ ) A lot of people accused me of tearing up a good Corvette, that wasn’t the case. Originally, when it came from Kellison it was ’63 Corvette split window. We cut out the split window part and made it a full window so it looked like a later model. The promoters liked to have the newest cars.
This was my first nitro funny car.
