Click under his name where it says, "My Corvette Photos" as the post itself does not have the images inserted into the actual posts.'

Take a 3 foot section of gutter guard and cut about an inch and a half off making it 4 1/2 inch wide raise the car and put it up from below in front of the radiator, tuck the ends in behind the stock grill and attach with zip ties or heavy string.
