They do amazing work.

This is most likely my last build so I wanted to do as much of it as I possibly could. I probably have 250+ hours in the bodywork including spraying Lizard Skin inside and under it as well as adding back the front turn signals. Last week I opened up the bumpers to fit and removed the brackets so I can tuck them up against the body. Once I change and weld them back on they're off to the plater. Headers came in today and the bottom so I'm hoping to set the body on the frame for the last time and bring it to my painter in the next couple weeks. I'm not sure I'll finish building the interior this year but as long as it's driveable it will be on the road this summer. (fingers crossed)
Thanks for the reply! It sure will be a beauty.

Beautiful car George!!! I did a 383/5 speed and Ridetech on my 63 vert and loved it. I'm trying to decide on whether to add the third tail light. I know it was a 70s thing but I really think it fills the panel better and almost looks like it should have come that way. Thanks for the inspiration. Sal

I can't believe this thread has over 30,000 views. Speaks volumes to the popularity of the Restomod Corvettes.

Just got my Art Morrison Chassis. Will be blasting the body down to bare fiberglass with the dustless E blast guys.

Since spring is here and warm weather is getting closer. Is anyone close to getting their project out on the road or the first time? Just wondering.
