Thought I'd stop in and say hi... hadn't done so since March/April. Hope everyone is doing well. Still doing a fair amount of corvette work.... especially the new bodyshop, done a few restorations for some split window 63's.

Still talk to a few members, just harder to do so when you're not hanging around the corvette community.

But anyway, just wanted to stop in, say hello and hope ya'll having a safe and great year.

Mark

Good morning..........restoring 63's, sounds like fun...... Sometimes I wish I had the ability to do something like that.......But I am NOT a craftsman......

Good morning, Mark. Good to see you still around. Bet it is a blast working on the 63s.

Good luck with your business and you have a safe year too.

Nice to hear from you. I was just talking with someone about that nice rear spoiler you molded into your back bumper. That looked good! Never seen one like it again.

That's good to know... I only did 3 of them...lol

Guys, thanks. It's good to see that some of the ol' timers are still here. I'll buy another vette one day but in the meantime, I thought I'd just stick my nose in here and say hello.

Glad to hear everyone is doing well. Still one of the best forums on the internet.

Take care and I'll stop by time to time....


Mark
