Yes.......this was the day it arrived at its present and last home. It has a little over 41K original miles. If you have a copy of the MF Dobbins 68-72 Vette Vues Fact book.....this car is the inside back cover photo and the engine is also featured in the '71 section of the book. Complete frame off restoration in 1991 resulting in a NCRS Top Flight and Bloomington Gold in the same year. I purchased the car in December last year. The last owner (when restored and won the awards) had the car for 13 years and only put 135 miles on it. I have driven it almost 1700....too nice to sit in the garage.

Very ! It would be tempting to keep a car that nice wrapped up and stored in the garage, but it's great to hear you're driving it!

If you bring up you picture and right click on it a drop down menu appears. Select (click on) properties, highlight the url of the pic, right click on the highlighted url and select copy, open a reply window or start a new thread here and click on the Image button. You will see a [IMG)[/IMG). Right click between this and select paste. Your url should then be placed between the two IMG's and when you select post the pic should appear.

Hope this is understandable.....

Surround it with the IMG tags instead of the URL tags in your message.
