WOW! Very cool, you'll aprreciate this. I grabbed my issue today as I came in the door and sat down to flip through it before I made dinner. I flipped through, pausing briefly on the AC article since I just had AC trouble on my Ruby. Since it was unrelated, I kept going and came upon the article about your car. I read the entire article, then flipped through the rest and got up to make dinner. Your car was the only one on my first go through that interested me enough to read it :cool:

thanks, it was a long road to get there but this was a fun project. those pictures were taken in january and the car has come a long way since then. mostly under the car. i hate they didnt take pictures of the bottom, i spent alot of time making it look as good as the top. i have another magazine calling to do a story about it. i dont know if that will pan out.

I just realized you were the guy in the 86. All along, I thought you were in a 98 for some reason. I loved the chrome wheels. My first new Vette was a yellow 96 coupe. You eiither love or hate the color, and I love it!!! :cheers:
