Thanks for the compliments, but all the praise should go to Zane Finney @ Finney's Corvette in Hancock, Md. The guy and his employees are awsome. From what I handed them to this ,if you have been watching my threads is nothing short of amazing. I am letting him drop the body back on then I will bring it home to finish up. I am getting excited now.

Shemp, Don't worry about being hot, just use the 602 Air system. 60mph, 2 window open. Some real sheep skin covers will make a difference and protect the seats. Dennis
