Default Makeover

I have a white 92 vette with 90.000 miles that is in exdcellent shape. Thinking about repainting in grand sport colors and buying grand sport wheels. I'm retired and will probably keep this vette for the forseeable future. I just want to have some fun with the car!! Any Thoughts??

Sounds cool, I like the look of the Grand Sport, You should keep an eye on ebay, sometimes they have Grand Sports seats on their also. That would be an easy to do upgrade.

Do a reverse GS scheme, keep it white but with a Blue stirpe and red hash marks or white with a red stripe and blue hash marks.
