Default My 2003 Vette

This is a picture my 2003 Vette before I lowered it. It has a black interior 6speed,headers cat back and a full Alpine sound system. Just waiting for some good weather so I can take more pictures and some interior shots.

Thanks, I still live in Wayne but that picture was taken at my summer house at the Jersey Shore. A great place to be with a convertible.

I didn't think it was Wayne. It does look like the Jersey shore.

Very nice looking spiral gray vert you have. Hopefully the weather turns for the better and you can get the car out for a photo shoot and some drive time.

In another post you asked about dying your convertible top. In this pic the top looks great. Did you dye it and if so what did you use?

That pic was a few years back but the top still looks pretty good. I have not dyed the top ever but I am looking into it. What is saving the top is putting the car back in the garage after driving and cleaning it and treating it with a protective treatment.
