Hey all,

I got my hood, I still haven't decided on the paint shop yet but I guess I need to start looking soon. I still haven't decided on what will fill the void under the hood yet, but I am getting closer, just waiting on some maggie dyno numbers before I take the plunge.

Looking good Jeff. Guess I need to start thinking about shaving my legs so I can get that ride when the maggie is installed

Auto Elite here in Virginia Beach. They repainted my entire car after one shop completely screwed it up. I was an adjuster so I've been to all the body shops around this area.

What color is your car... some are harder than others?

Good, I was tired of driving around Yorktown trying to find your Vette.

MTI Racing did their first dyno on a LS3 today, maybe I will be placing the order soon. Get that razor ready.

Looks like they do art work also, I would like the C6 emblem painted under the hood so I will have to check them out, thanks.

My Vette is Black.

^ Black is simple... If you contact auto elite, speak w/ Brian Dodson the owner and tell him Brian w/ the yellow targa Z06 recommended him. They do fantastic work and work on most all of the high end cars in Va Beach. Most Porsche owners have him on speed dial as do most of the local Viper guys.

EDIT: Just realized I spelled adjuster wrong a few posts back. Oh and black is simple... easiest color to match.

Thanks Brian, I will drop your name. Targa Z06, now that is a mod. Is this one of the famous barn mods I have been hearing about?

I have been looking for a high end shop, sounds like I need to cruise down to check them out, thanks.

Hope to see you in one of the Ratpack functions.

Infamous Vettebarn!

That is what I have been hearing, but I was going to wait until I meet you guys before forming my opinion.

The Vette Barn crew is just a bunch of rookies. Feel free to stop by anytime. We would be honored to chop your car up.

If anything is going on next weekend I might be able to cruise down. At least until the Vette is paid off, no major cutting allowed.
