    Long shot but throwing this out there. My dad (George Youngs Jr.) built this hot rod in 1965 in the Fort Lauderdale, Florida area. It had a Corvette 283ci with 3x2 setup, 4 speed, single drivers side windshield, squared roll bar. Was sold in late 1960s.

    Anyone seen this car? Would love nothing more than to find this car after 47 years being sold.

    Dad is the one leaning up against the door. ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1440039480.168297.jpg

    Thanks. Yeah, even if just a previous owner recognizes it would be awesome.

    30-31 coupe with the roof cut off. Doors welded shut. I'd bet it would be easily recognizable if it's still out there.
