He bought a Corvette just for the sake of turboveg engine Chevrolet 454ci LS6. This engine he set off on his Ford model A for a drag race. Since the Corvette was left exterior, Dewey did not miss the opportunity to build something unique. Beautiful car to move quickly on sand.
The most difficult was to place the engine under the bonnet, rasgado and front-wheel drive. Peredney the entire suspension and drive taken from the Cadillac Eldorado 70s. It includes its own frame, front suspension, spindles, brakes and steering gear. Used transfer case from the Jeep. Despite the huge hood, none of the engines of the Corvette just didn't fit physically. As a result, the car installed a 392 hemi from a Chrysler new Yorker ' 58 with a volume of 6.4 L. with Edelbrock carburetors, power increased to 490 HP with the standard 375 HP.
The engine mounts had to shift 3 inches. For cooling, put a huge aluminum racing radiator. Because of him, the Corvette lost rising headlights.
Bottom mounted dual headlights from a Chrysler Imperial Bifurcated exhaust removed from the bottom and serves as both running boards.
For surfboards on the roof made the trunk.
The car was made for fast movement on the sand. We had to fit wheel size with great BFGoodrich tires 33×12.50R15.
