Default Project complete- new pics

OK, promised more pics once this project was complete. 30+ months and lots of help from good people like PorchDog and Alan. These were taken for insurance purposes so doors and hood are not completely shut.

Lots of pics at this web site:!!!!!!!!!!!!!!++++++++++++

Man, I really like the look of that car. Do you plan to take it to Hardees in Chester for the Saturday night cruise ins? I'd love to see it in person.

Thanks to all for the approval ratings. Yes, the car has already been to Hardees about two weeks ago. Put it in the Corvette show at Heritage last weekend and did pretty good. We have also registered for the show at Zip in June. Hope to see some of the forum members at that gathering.
Thanks again,
Norm
