Default New Pics of Vertical Doors

Took advantage of the beautiful weather we had here today and went for a cruise.
Met a C6 while in town and exchanged compliments while stopped next to each other at a red light!
While I was out, I also made an appointment with my buddy to finish up the flames on my door jambs next week and stopped at the auto upholstery shop to schedule my V.E. seat skins to be installed in a couple weeks.
It was a very good day!
Here's a couple pics I took of my new vertical doors while I was out.

Hi Jim -

Damn - as if the car did not draw enough attention already!



Beautiful pictures - and I like the vertical doors - I can't wait to see it at the next event I am lucky enough to go to -

There is a charity car show near St. Louis on April 22nd - OAK and Factoryracecar will be there to name a couple - I plan on going and perhaps if you are there I will get to see your updated ride.

best regards -

Hi Andy, thanks for the response.
St. Louis is only about a 3 hr. drive, I'll check my work schedule to see if I can make it.
Would there happen to be a web site about the event?

Also a Big Thanks to everybody else that responded too!

Hi Jim !
These pics dont do your car justice. I had the opportunity to see your car in person at Carlisle this August and in my opinion its among the nicest c5's out there .
Thanks for sharing the pics.

I love your car and it would be great to come to Boerne TX for our car show in April so I can see your beauty in person, your Vette is the best looking Vette I have seen to date

Looks great Jim, hope to see ya again come Vettefest time. Are you sorry you did the doors? All the horror stories I have read on here shyed me away from the couple of companies willing to give me a set for my car .
