Thanks... ...The photographer and I were saying the same thing... ...He said he had been wanting to take some shots of a vette at a Fire Station for a quite a while and how lucky it was to have these guys stop by while he just happen to be shooting mine with the flames...

Man your car is just too sweet.....I dont think there is any other spot to flame out unless you do the head liner and under body!

The fire truck shots where cool too! Women love big hoses!

Have to keep us posted when it comes out!

If I ever need the fire department, I hope they send ones like the last two! I think I'll need CPR, just to get the mouth to mouth.
That wasn't a coincidence that they just happened to be driving by. Really, some little old lady saw your car and called 911 to report it burning.
"911 what's your emergency?"
"I wanna report a car fire"
"OK Mamm, we'll send an engine"
"Unit 12 to base, that car isn't actually on fire.....it's just smokin HOT!"

Hey Irv, thanks... ...I think they're probably better at starting a fire than fighting one... ...

Fantastic shots of your car, Jim and the addition of the fire trucks is a bonus.

Those are some great pics of a beautiful Vette.
Thanks Steve, I wasn't sure where we were at....we wound around several back country roads to get there....
Those last two firefighters are part of the 'Specialty Hose Handling Team' that doesn't always require the use of helmets....
(Sorry, couldn't resist that one... ...I'm probably going to be in big trouble now)...

Man, the trouble I could get into dissecting this quote. I must be either:
A: Getting older(nowayinhell)
B: Getting wiser(yeahright!)
or C: Dis-liking the taste of sneakers and sweaty socks from putting my foot in my mouth(YOUBETCHATHATSTHEREASON)
Thanks for the laughs Jim, needed that!

Yup, there sure was. Well, having the flames done, not actually doing them himself. It was amazing to see that guy do his stuff. He's truly an artist, for sure.
As for the CROWN JEWEL, I bet you couldn't find 2 people to disagree with that one. His Z is simply AHmazing!

Is the calendar going to be just of your car, or?
Ever enter it into the Snap-on Calendar? You should!! My father-in-law had one of his cars in it last year. Pretty !!
