Default Before and After Pics...

I updated my website. Not a lot... but always nice to see work in progress photos. Unfortunately, both front rotors are out... might go with upgraded rotors...

that's looking GREAT! I'd loved to get a second Vette that needed a frame off (well mine does now, but it's not all that bad). Someday!

Nice to see the before & after pix. Great work! It appears you have a purely dedicated *Vette* garage. Must be single with no kids. :lol:

Haaa... close. I am married, but no kids. The government considers me a DINK... My wife wants the car done NOW!! When asked why... "so you can park your new SUV in the garage??" She answers... "... HELL NO, I wanna DRIVE THAT THING!..." She even ENJOYS Carlisle. Some day I will get her the one she really wants... A 1956 Corvette!
