What it looked like a few weeks ago. Notice the difference in how the paint is now? Took me about 6 months after I bought it to get it to the point I was happy with it with a lot of polishing. It shows it's true colors these days.

What it looks like these days. I actually have the air intake painted gloss black now too.



Also just installed some new seat skins with some purple accent stitching to go along with my shifer and e-brake boots.



I am really glad I was able to rescue this Vette from a life of neglect at the time it came up for sale. Having lots of fun with it.

Keep 'em coming..........

Nice rescue job...looks great.

Thanks Maxx.

Thank you I appreciate the compliments. I'm going to have to check out your ride soon, I just picked up a 97 that I'm thinking about swapping in a truck 6.2 l92 or just going full on ls7.

Thanks! Appreciate the kind words.

I'm loving the car more and more, the less stock it becomes. Can't wait for the next round of mods to be complete.

When I bought her in '06..


New(to me) High Rise hood. Iforged Daytona's. 19x9.5. 2.5inch lip, 20x13. 5 inch lip. Corvette stripes CE. L5 3 1/4inch flares with side marker and antennae delete..


Michael Basset Sun Guns...


LG 1 7/8 long tubes and big 3 exhaust... With Pistol Petes Carbon spoiler.


Radioflyer halos. These were one of the first mods I think back in '08 or '09.


I'll have to come back to this thread as I think this will be my biggest mod year so far.


Love seeing how people have changed their cars to express their style!
