Very cool Corvette journey you've had over the years and I must say the latest addition to your garage is very nice.

Nice story....Just curious, but are those roll-over hoops functional, meaning bolted to the frame? Cheers, Indy.

Thanks everyone

I forgot to add the spec's of the car: '04, 6 speed, 11,500 miles. Only mod's (came with the car) so far are GHL Bullets, Lloyd's mats, chrome roll hoops. I took off the cheesy screen package that was on it.

No, they are just for looks. They came with the car, but are just epoxied in.
