Very nice!

Thanks Rob. I've noticed that a lot of the bumper C3 cars varied GREATLY in their fitment. Stuff like the front chrome surround below the bumpers are very often a bit off alignment. And this was true right out of the factory. I think the PO of my car might have had them re-aligned to be fitting quite nicely.

This ol girl is in the beauty shop getting a face lift and manacure.

Thanks. It's gonna get a blower, small block or big block.
I have the 496 already, so that's a natural choice, but I don't want to take out the small block and just have it sitting there. Now....if someone wants to buy the small motor, it'll be ON.....

Although I liked the Z28 wheels,


I think the new rally wheels and redlines look great and complete the car:

Hoping to find some nice clean P02's to try on her as well.
