Welcome back. Wow, I just looked through your "Resurrection page" and you did great work bringing that Vette back. I can't wait to get mine on the road.

Thanks Jordon, It took me right at a year to complete the car. A lot of Blood sweat and beers. LOL. Good luck my friend it sure is a lot of fun. I may look for another to start in the spring when the weather breaks.

I remember your threads on this car and remember the pics on front of the house.

The red on that car looks fantastic.
