Well I finally got it all cleaned up and I removed the emblems on the sides. Thanks for the advise on how to get them off. It worked like a charm. I've got pictures coming of the car.... and the wife.

I drove a 1979 vette when I was in high school and I always wanted another one. This thing sounds like a beast. I'm not sure what mods it has but it does have dynatech headers and a vortec cai. It's a 2001 with 27000 miles on it. The streets are all wet here in Houston so I didn't want to drive it much tonight but man I am stoked! I can't wait to clean it up and take more pictures

SWEET ! Why did the prior owner have to add the Corvette flags to the window post ??? Oh well it's still beautiful !!!! CONGRATS
