Final pics!!
Unfortunately the car is still in the paintshop
but i've taken a few pics so you can see the paint scheme, still missing the (17) race numbers on the doors and the racing decals to match the new paint, but here it is...BTW, the car is a bit high on the wheels due to about a month staying on a stand...It'll go further low when driven for a few miles.
Please note the full open 'mouth', i've cut the whole front and leave it open with a light black grill.
...and a happy owner here

Bravo my friend. That is a very mean looking Vette now. I love that color, and the body guy did a fantastic job with the front grill. Great work. 
Hey, do you still have the vacuum reservoir tank up in the front of the car? That could be another 30 pounds off if you take it out.

Easily one of the coolest looking custom Vettes on the site. Can't wait to see some pics of it out of the shop.

Looks awesome . . . I really like that hood. The whole package looks good . . . paint, flares, hood, grill, wheels/tires, mirrors, spoilers & lights. You have set the bar high for the rest of us

Just saved the pics to my computer - I am planning on adding flares to my body then slapping on some really wide tires. I love the paint
PS: Please post more pics on the rear end when done
