This project is nearing an end. We're still wrapping up the final details, plus the paint still has to get its finishing wet sand. Also, the customer is undecided about refinishing the interior at the moment. They'll probably bring the car back to us another time down the road to refinish the interior when funds allow.

Shane,
very nice job. I'm over by Willow Grove so I should stop in some time.
Quick ? what did you use for insulation under the heat shields and tunnel? I like it.
Mine was all removed when I bought it by PO's.
Thanks,
Marshal

Marshal,

We use OE styled tunnel pad & firewall insulation. Quite a few places make their own OE style insulation. We buy ours from Corvette America (Forum Sponsor). If you give them a call they'll gladly point you in the right direction to pick some up for your personal Corvette.

You definitely need to stop by the shop for a tour! We're here Monday through Friday 8-5pm and Saturday 9-12pm. I hope you make it over to us soon!

-Shane

" SIX PACK" is a Dodge term, "SIX BARREL" is a Plymouth term,to be exact.
