...the monument in the picture is actually an old family burial plot....I have used it for many years as a foto shoot backdrop for many cars...it has been on the cover of a couple of MOPAR magazines and a Johnny Lightning toy car several years ago....

...I only recently discovered there are people buried under it

Sponge Vette...Nice car, But what's up with that 4x4 look.

**************************************** *****

...that picture was taken the day after I drove it home last June....bought it at Les Stanford during all the price rebate programs.....

...as far as lowering, I like the look, but the neighborhood I live in has a lot of hills....the Vette already drags at several intersections and especially coming in and out of my driveway.....it scrapes hard....
