Default 75 Vert resto 6 months progress (Pics)

Bought the car after Thanksgiving last year. All that was missing was a brake booster to run. The guy put a few bucks into the engine but nothing into the body. The car runs very nice, original block a good amount of chrome. His theme was some kind of Bicentennial throwback which was not appealing to me. I kept a couple of pieces to remember what it looked like. I had a long hard search for the right kind of color, we settled on 2008 Mercedes Iridium Silver as the base and a fine Blue Pearl in the Clearcoat. When I get some pics in the sun I will post them. Hooker sides are on the car but I need to get to upload them. Got my first Corvette Tatoo from the pipes last week. In process of ordering a side shield right now. Enjoy.
