Thanks Bill, I really appreciate your compliment! I know it's not as classy as some of the other catalog Vettes.... But it's such a good looking car for a DIY guy like myself.

WOW that looks great! The shot from the back is very cool! Great job getting the stripe centered under the hood! Not to be too picky but looks like the rear spoiler moved to the left...

Great job Rick!! I last saw your car a week ago on the forum and it had a checkered under belly on the hood... What the heck did you do? You changed so quickly!! I really love the stripe better.... VERY SHARP!!

Despite the interior, I love that car Rick....Ive always been a PRO "baller wheel" guy tho lol if this car had some big dish or Concave wheels, it would be beyond incredible.

PS i wanna bang your car.
