This is the 1931 Chevy 2 door coach that we sold..... and used the money & garage space to get our current Vette, our "retirement toy"... our 71 coupe project!

Its been three years since I have had a ride to cruise, this was my $100. investment that I sold to fund my corvette project. I spent lots of time and effort to turn this one into a show winner.

My first car a '71 340 'cuda. Sold it to my brother to buy my '72 vette in 1974. I still have my vette and wished I had kept the 'cuda also.
