65 progress
the rough body work is all done with a new top surround installed. Everything lined up. And ready for finale body work and paint. Very nice clean original body. The frame is nice a rust free with some original paint left on it. And in the last picture is someone attempt to raise the back end of the car for the bigger wheels and tires

Your car? Your dad's car?

Nice. How long did it take you to strip the paint? I’m nearing the halfway point on the body. Wish mine was as clean as that one.

I was thinking about this car just the other day. Thanks for the progress report. You're incredibly fortunate, Keith, to be accumulating all these memories and projects with your Dad. Cherish them. Keep the updates coming...they're appreciated.

That is darling, and yes, comes before enjoying working with your Dad on C2s!
Happy birthday to that cutie. They grow up far, far too quickly.

Congratulations to you, have a few more. Being with family is most important. Be thankful we live(d) in a time when we can have almost anything we want. We have 3 daughters and 4 grandchildren. life is good.

Looks like you still have my old 67'?

Looks like a nice project to do with your Dad. Great memories. Nice that you both have the skills to do your own work and not have to always pays labor charges to get things done on your C2 Corvette.

Mike I wish I could take credit for the body work but like most we don't have the skill to do that. but I can assure the price dad paid is no where near the prices you read on here
