The pine needles and leaves are such a mess to clean up that it makes most people just turn and walk away. But what a beauty you have under the dirt, when the effort has been taken to reverse the neglect!

Default You have to thanks the Seller.
Why? anyone that puts a SR in Vette knows Vettes period, instead of decapitating it by selling off the parts, he choose to give you a deal of a lifetime.

He knew what he was doing, he didn't ***** himself out for the money but "sacrificed" to understand that the Vette will be resurrected to terrorize once again!!!

BTW, how does the SR run on a stock motor?any comments???
