Default Some Quality Time With The '71

I've had a pretty busy schedule lately and haven't spent as much time with my cars as I would have liked. The weather was perfect last evening and I was able to spend some quality time with my '71. There is no better way to unwind than cruising the back roads in a vintage Vette!

Thanks guys! It's just a driver but still a lot of fun. I'll shoot some more pics soon and post. Thank you Alan for your comment but I could only wish it were in the same league as yours! Plenty still to do but glad I bought the new NCRS TIMJG for '70-72. A wonderful resource.

Hi b67r,
It really does look like a special car!
It's stance and the paint shown in the first photo immediately caught my eye.
Regards,
Alan
