Yes...Duntov Turbo was the brainchild of the late Robert Schuller, founder of American Custom Industries. Based on a corvette Coupe, the convertible conversion featured upgraded suspension, custom body panels and a unique interior. The L-48 350 V8 was fitted with a martin Turbocharger, for modest performance gains. 200 cars were planned only about 37 were built. The legendary corvette Chief engineer, zora Duntov, regretted lending his name to the project.
