You and Brett deserve all the accolades you're getting for that build - without a doubt!

That's a testament to the patience and perseverance it takes to create a replica of a milestone Corvette prototype. That article was earned and is well deserved.

I thank you all and I know Brett does also. We are going down to pickup the car this weekend and bring my baby home. For you who live up north central America the car will be at the Milwaukee Masterpiece Concourse d'Elegance in August. I just got my letter that they want it there.

At the NCM now picking up the car. I will be glad to get it back home on carpet and under cover. Thanks to all for all the kind words on the car and I am so glad that Brett and I built it but that is the last build for me. I just want to enjoy the 54 at home and taking it to Concours Events. I do know that at some point I will be helping Brett lay fiberglass because he has a few special custom cars lined up to build for customers. That is the least I could do is help him for all that he has done for me on the Motorama Car. I hope whom ever builds a custom car like the Motorama Car would do what we did and post all the work that they do on the car for us all to see. It is nice to see the progress each week.
