Nope, one of the late eighties twin turbo hammers was in the auto-trader here fairly cheap not long ago.

Do a search for Callaway owners group or something like that. Also Corvette Forum you might be able to find out what you need.

FYI. There was only one "hammer" Callaway built and that car aka Sledgehammer has been in Germany for over a decade.

Lingenfelter drove the Sledgehammer Vette for the Top speed record of 254.76 Mph. I guess Callaway was a sissy and couldn't handle his own vehicles :D

Did'nt call it the Sledgehammer itself, but many call the twin turbo option sold by GM hammer's. GM offered them until the ZR1 came out, so several did get built and the Sledgehammer was built to promote them.

Re: Callaway vette

My brother-in-law has one. It is a 95 I think. Tuned Port motor, twin turbo. I can find out more, but it is fast as hell once the turbos spool up. 80k on the clock & it has been raced on road courses for several seasons & is holding up very well.

Friend of mine has one. He bought it from a auction, it was hit in the front. Still sitting exactly like he bought it in a garage under covers. I think he wants to sell it also.
