Extreme Split Window "Resto -Mod"

A while ago stumbled on a true gem of automotive art. That gem was the Legacy Innovations 1963 restro-modded split window. The only word that can describe this car is "Aahhhhh".
This Vette was the creation of legendary car builder Ron Saboury and Legacy Innovations out of out of York PA.

The unrestored car was found at the Corvettes of Carlisle show. The car was dissembled and fitted with a Legacy tube chassis. To make things interesting the 63 was treated to a supercharged LS9 crate engine. Power is transmitted to the ground via a Tremec six speed tranny and a Ford nine inch rear.
