Vette Mag (March 14)
Just received the March 14 Vette Magazine in the mail today. Congrats to one of our very own forum members (Cruisin DavyG) for making the cover story and center spread with their beautiful 72!!! Below is a shot of it at the 2013 Detroit Autorama. I had a chance to talk to Dave and his son Steve who are the masters behind this work of art. Both super guys with a wealth of knowledge and obvious talent.

Thanks Hooah,
On average, it takes 9 months to birth a child so it seems fitting that this data would take the same amount of time to learn about.
Beautiful car and curious if there is more digital information to peruse? I for one, would enjoy reading how this project came to fruition.
The color alone is so dynamic, I had to put my sunglasses back on...

It's all about
the stance .
I remember the threads when he was building it.
The car is outstanding and the
Vette feature is certainly deserved.
Well done!

Yeah I remember the posts on the build too. Air bagged suspension to put it on the ground. Lots of attention to detail. Sharp looking car.

Thanks Raphiki.
I wondered if that wasn't the case but I didn't want to "assume". It makes the most sense. The car is beautiful.
