Open both windows and toggle back and forth. Also, hit the enter bar after each pic, and the pics will be easier to view, as they will not run together.

Nice car. Has some minor OEM pieces not mounted (ok, MC is not minor) but overall, looks like a nice ride. Appears in great condition for what's shown.

Got any plans overall? (as is, NCRS, resto-mod, auto-x, garage queen [kidding]) Is this your first chrome bumper car?

Keep us posted with more pics: we enjoy looking at pics. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Mick,
I enjoyed looking at your pictures!
It's always fun to see what people are doing in the garage
Are you having fun with your 71?
Regards,
Alan

My first 'vette, first total rebuild, didn't even drive it before I tore it apart. Now it runs and drives pretty well. Now if I can make it half as nice as Al's.........

Looking good, did the same thing with my 73, just drove it about 1/4 mile. Then turned it in to a total frame off.

Problem with the robot is it keeps wandering away, and I end up getting the tool myself Hey Frank, your car looks familiar. Lots of hours gettin the body straight, huh? Maybe I'll turn my white letters out. Looks good. Thanks to all for the kind words!! Makes all the effort worth it.
