I got all the little parts and pieces as well as carpet installed so the interior is buttoned up.

I found I had a cracked carb base and a burned spark plug boot, its running a lot smoother now that those are fixed.

I also found out that Pittsburgh international race complex has trackcross, you can run their road course for something like $40 unfortunately it looks like I missed this years dates and will have to wait till spring. the last date is Saturday and I already have obligations

Looks good. I'm new to Vettes myself. I bought my 92 earlier in the year and an 82 last week. Let the madness begin. I transitioned from MG's and Triumphs. I definitely don't miss the rusty rockers and fenders. My headlights even stay on at night (no Lucas electrics) I've been married 40 years and our marriage is good as long as none of my cars or parts wander onto my wifes side of the garage.

PS : the picture to the left was taken very quickly and 1/2 of of the garage was vacated.
