It's in "Albums", not the garage.
Went in the top with it eh. Is that common with Vettes (I don't know). My experience with F-Body engine jobs is that you lift the car off instead of pulling the motor up. Thought Vettes might be easier the same way.
Look'n good! Mucho fun on the way there.

4th gen f-body out the top? Cause, that's a tight squeeze. Much easier out the bottom on them. Looks like there's a lot more room to do one that way on the C5 Vette.
