Congrats. Just judging from the pics that I've seen around here, I'd say that your car is one of the best put together projects of any make or model. You could be on the cover of Car Craft, Hot Rod, or whatever, not just Corvette mags.

Congratulations on the cover story Joe, It's well deserved.

I saw your car at the Goodguys show in Rhinebeck last fall and I must say that this car is an inspiration to all of us building restomod C3's.

Your hard work paid off. Your car belongs on a magazine cover. During the time I had your car as my screen saver at work it recieved many favorable comments. The color is fantastic IMO.

And again, Thanks!

I never did it before but CE has the magazine in digital format accessible through their website if you are subscriber with a subscription number. Took about 30 seconds with a prior months mag and hand and I was in.

They did a great job on the article. At the time I built the car I was also doing some business promotion (hence the mention of Corvette Tech, Inc) but due to several health related issues Corvettes are back to a hobby for me. They also incorrectly spelled Frakensport instead of FrankenSport but got the headline correct so no boggy. Other than that it's a nice 5 page spread without advertising all over it.

Thanks again.
