The Grond Chronicles : The Final Chapter
For all of you that have followed my C5 modifications exploits over the past 4 years, I thank you.
For the newer members that may not know what "Grond" is, I would refer you to this website for some background threads. http://grond.tv
The Grond Chronicles are coming to a close; the final chapter has been written.
Since becoming a full time Tuner over 2 years ago, time is something I no longer have. We work 7 days a week and we're booked solid out to mid May with lots of long term projects.
Unfortunately, the flipside of our success is I have zero time to dedicate to my own personal project car, Grond.
As a result, I will be parting Grond out over the next few months. All of the unique, cool and interesting mods will be up for sale - the dual rear transmission coolers, the custom ratchet shifter, the backlit cluster, the Tigershark frontend, the shaved doors, the ECS Paxton Novi 2000 supercharger, the 8 rib system, the RPM Level V A4 transmission and so on.
Again, thank you all for your support and encouragement over the years - and stay tuned. I will probably start a new project once things settle down a bit, business wise. Of course, it will be published here first on the Corvette Forum.
Thanks
Stephen

Sad to see you calling an end to your work on the car. But, it's good to hear you are so busy with the business. Best of luck with whatever that next project may be.

Stephen,
Sorry to hear that Grond will not be rising from the ashes.
I can relate though. Ended up making that decisions on my last vette. Just did not have the time and energy to do the work needed.
Hope all works out in the end.

Just no time, sadly - Grond looks the same as it did 2 years ago...

Sorry to hear that. I've missed those Grond updates. But glad the business is doing well (or at least keeping you guys very busy).
So I guess someone is going to be buying "the Shell of Grond" if you are parting it out.
