Thanks. A lot of love and effort has gone into bringing this part of an American Icon to this car. I consider myself the caregiver.

Thanks. That's one of the reasons I bought it 6 years ago. I get many complements and many hand waves. Even some from the C5 & C6 crowd.

Very very nice! Makes me miss my parents 2 tone silver with silver interior 85. I miss it also because I totaled it being a selfish 20 year old.

Very nice car, the interior looks near mint. My 85 doesn't look as nice as yours. Keep the pictures coming.

Never seen a vette with a Chocolate interior before. Looks good!

It looks refined. So many of them came in the "show off colors" both inside and out. So, it's nice to see something different.

Looks tasteful.

My 85 Gold Metallic has the same interior. I hope to get mine in the same shape as yours (inside and out). I'm printing the pictures and putting them in my folder to keep in mind what she could look like again.

Don't beat yourself up about it. I remember all the stupid stuff I did when I was 20. Felt like I was bullet proof. No offence to our younger forum members.
