Post some dramatic before/after pics.
This could be fun, I really like to see the hard work and dedication we all put into our Vettes.
Check out my sig pic, when I first posted it a forum member said the before pic looked as though the car was stored under water :eek:

Re: Post some dramatic before/after pics. (GrandSportC3)
What a cool thread, I've never seen any of your "before" shots. You guys (and gal) have done killer work!
BTW - Lil vette chic, can we get a better shot of those wheels? They look :cool:

OK - here is my first set:
Before
After
Now the vette:
My only pic of the 75 when running - and me in it.
Now, the 75 is all but gone ....
The 70 started off something like this ...
note the top of the windshield frame is missing.
... and as she sits today - WSF fixed - ready for front clip to go in.

Re: Post some dramatic before/after pics. ('79ProwlerOrange)
79ProwlerOrange and Mystery Machine, thanks.
The wheels are Edelbrock 454's, Ultra makes them and Edelbrock sells them. I bought the polish/luster finish, but when I opened up the box they were chrome. I was a little nervous about the wheels, but they have the same kind of look of the Grand Sports so I hoped it would be okay.
Here's a picture of the polish/luster finish.
Another picture of the chrome.
