After going on this website for years and wanting a MakoShark I was finally able to get one. I missed out on a few of them along the way but was determined to get this one. My 14 year old son is really into them as well and since the 74 Vette that we were building together for him is being sold to put this car in its place, I told him that this would be his car. At least I'll have a few years with it until he can drive. The previous owner informed me that he had this car built by John Silva and gave me the Silva Catalog to go with it. The paint is peeling on the nose of the car where the mural is but that can be easily fixed. The 350 engine runs good but needs a little carb work and a tune up. I'll be taking off the Hooker sidepipes and replacing them with original 69 side exhaust. I'll add some pictures as soon as I can.

Last words in fatal accidents for 49 of 50 states are "Oh Sh*t!" Final words in Wisconsin are "Hold my beer, I'm gonna try somethin'..."
