Weighed in @ 9lbs + and Mom is doing fine. Great name for the little guy, Justin Noel Mercado. WOW that does have a great ring to it. Congrats to the proud parents, Noel & Jen.



I see a C5 Z06 in this young man's future, right Dad????

Noel congratulations on the new addition. I got your email the other day regarding the cowl and that you were going to be out until later this week due to the newborns birth.

Enjoy the new addition and when you come back we can discuss your plans and to see if you need any additional info from me on shipping issue. I have the car back together and will get some pics taken this week for you to post on the site. Looks better as expected in the sun then in the dark dreary garage.

Thanks again for work well done.

Chris
