S/G, Pro Mod style. Not a stock replica.

The AFC 53-55 Vette body distributed by Suncoast Race Cars can be built with integral grill surrounds and fiberglass headlight rings or will accept all the OEM chrome trim, and headlights, (for pro street use) either style makes a great race car. This great body style has been modified to eliminate all the disadvantages that a stock Vette body has presented to the builder in the past and still retains its classic lines and looks.


These design modifications consist of moving the rear wheel opening C/L back 2" to allow longer 4-link dimensions with the driver in the correct position. The tops of the quarters are raised and recontoured for the maximum clearance for even the biggest tires, yet still retains a low overall height of the finished car. A removable decklid was added (along with a recessed decklid receiving flange) to the body for easy access of batteries, fuel pumps, fuel tank, weight bars, etc.


Even with these modifications it still retains the classic looks of a '53-'55 Vette. Only a purist could tell the difference! These features combined with the Suncoast/AFC "builder friendly" design and a smooth , glossy "Virgin White" exterior finish add up to give you....…
