Re: (Forum REQUIREMENT) Owners, Post pics of your Callaways...
Yep.... Live in Indy on the near north side..... Car is in OK shape.... Paint sucks, real bad, but it runs OK.... Currently have tranny issue where it will pop out of third gear under boost.... Thinking of just biting the bullet and doing the keisler swap to a 6 speed which should make that car really fun.... Have told the story before but, for those who dont know, My father bought that car new in 87 from Hansen Chevrolet out of the northwest... Put the car in a hauler and brought it to Indy (never forget the day... I was 9 years old). He kept it from 87 to 98 and sold it to his best friend. My father died 4 years ago from cancer. His best friend called me about a year after his death and told me the car needed to be mine. He thought I should have it. We agreed on a very fair price and I brought her home. The car really looks like poop but thats whats great about pulling up to the unkowning punk in a ricer at a stoplight.... he has no idea what is next to him.... just thinks its a bald guy in a POS old vette that the clear coats is completly gone on Then I smash the go pedal and laugh all the way to the next stoplight when I look back over and have to lift the kids jaw off his dash..... usually get the " what the hell is in that thing" Anyway..... That's the story of 1987 #23gils4sea wrote:It's good to see another Hoosier(assumption based on your name) on this forum. Welcome! I live near Evansville and also have an '87 B2K.

Re: (Forum REQUIREMENT) Owners, Post pics of your Callaways.
Alas.....I cannot get the pics small enough to post on the forum. I am an editing and photo software idiot. Don't even attempt to instruct me..that too will lead to failure. I will wait until one of the kids is home
But got the SC606 home yesterday. What a beautiful car.....there are pictures of it ...it was the Cyber Grey Grande sport that was at the Spring mountain get together last month. Callaway had it on display there

Took the cars to the launch Cruise-In for the Copperstate 1000 Rally today. Got some primo parking for them up on the patio instead of in the parking lot, so it worked out great!
Later,

This is my new baby - 1987 number 40. 12,500 miles. MINT original condition
Just passed New Zealand import tests and on the road now for 2 weeks. Is the first and only Callway in my country.
What an awesome fun car. Makes me want to get a later model one now.....Guess I've caught the Callaway bug.
Cheers..........Duffy

Re: (Forum REQUIREMENT) Owners, Post pics of your Callaways.
Here's mine. 1987 #132 36K miles delivered form England to Sweden on the 9th of June but since the condition was... well not mint I've struggled all summer to get it working and pass the Swedish import tests.
Since the UK dealer Claremont Corvette had a very good reputation I dared to buy it unseen but that turned out more like you could expect from picking a dealer at random...
Anyway I've just received the Swedish licence plates and I think it's the first Callaway in Sweden. This is how little the Corvette respects my Saab 9-5 Aero. Not very friendly to spit condensation and soot...
(Yes I admit I'm slightly partial to grey cars but I didn't realise how similar the colors were until parking them together.)

I fixed the youtube link. For future reference, just put the Video ID # in between the youtube code....
Your Video's ID# is 9M4pF6T9sK8, so you put that in between the brackets.
Enjoy!

Re: (Forum REQUIREMENT) Owners, Post pics of your Callaways.
Fantastic - Enjoy your new machine.......always a gamble to buy something unseen - I bought #40 from Texas over eBay (pics looked good and it had only travelled 12,000 miles) I was lucky and pleasantly surprised it was MINT. Am now enjoying it - been round the race track a few times already to stretch its legs.

Re: (Forum REQUIREMENT) Owners, Post pics of your Callaways.
Harold, did you have the old gray backgrounds changed from the headlamps to black? The car looks a bit better than it did before you owned it.
