Gentlemen...your words have a smiling effect on me and Joanne is blushing, smile. We both thank you very much in all the help everyone has gernerously supplied us with. It was with this help that we were able to turn our Vette around in exactly one year less a week. We put the pressure on ourselves so we could drive this summer as well as the next, next and next... Again thanks!!!

Here are a few pic's of before and after...

Fifth huh? I could see it if ~maybe~ we're at Bloomington, but sheesh, it's hard to imagine cars sharper than that anywhere else.

You've got a great looking car!

Wow... you and your bride are helping me get up the stones to attempt a frame-off myself. How long did the process take? And if you don't mind me asking, how much did you spend on:

Mechanical?
Body work (makes the paint look great!)
Paint? (excellent!)
Interior?
Chassis?

Too cool. Keep us posted with more pics

Man, that car is simply beautiful! Great to see you finished in time for the 06 season. You said it ran great, did your floor insulation job keep out the heat? Had enough of laying tile? You have the expertise and knowledge now to start up a Vette Resto Shop!!! Very WB
