Default Sometimes we can all get along

My buddy owns a contour SVT and is one of the, Cobras rock all vettes, why spend that kind of money type people. Bah, i know. But on saturday he brought his car up to the carwash i own and we did a header y-pipe and exhaust install. 17 hours working in tiny spaces was the most fun ive had working on a car. Just goes to show some of these SVT die hards are more than just some poor lost soul, they are car fanatics too. Now i just cant wait to show him the vette and do my GHL install!!!

Good of you to help him out. If everybody had vette's it probably wouldn't just be the same. Just curious, has he ever driven your vette?? Wondering what he'd think then.

No, only people to have driven the vette are my uncle, my dad and I. When i bring it up he maybe will, im sure he will be impressed just on the basis of what he likes. I will let ya'll know what he thinks.
