Anyone know if the motive gears in this link will work with the upgraded mainshaft? I have had some people tell me motive doesn't make a 30 spline gear set that will work in the C5 differential. According to the ad they do but just wanted to make sure before I pulled the trigger and they didn't work. Was told it may be a typo but wanted to double check. Any info is greatly appreciated.

Door panels pulled off to remove the mirrors and get ready for sanding and paint. Will be changing colors. The car will be white.

The car will be white
NNNOOOOO!!!!! anything but white!! White is not a color!! It's the absence of color.

Just kidding, looks like you guys are doing a great job. Wish I had time to do something like this with my son.

Thanks I really appreciate it. Always wanted a white Corvette so what better way than to do it myself.

We really have a great time working on stuff like this. I'm sure it wont be the last car we do.

Looks like you'll have almost new car when done. Wish I had more time to tinker on car projects.
