My 74 is DONE!!!!!!!
....Well, as done as they get for a while anyway. :lol: :lol:
Just wanted to share the latest on the 74 with my fellow C3 owners.
Thanks for all of the positive comments from those that have followed along.

I still have a few "detail" type items to go, but for now it's on the road with the 454 and side pipes singing LOUD!!!!!

DaBo...
Very nice! Dark colors on vettes look really great. I notice you do not have the split rear bumper. If you changed.... it sounds like a smart idea.

Woo Hoo, a big block with side pipes. :yesnod:
Do a video or sound clip and post it dude, I can burn a CD and play it on my family room sound system. That will scare the neighbors, and maybe my wife too... :bb
