Default 75 is almost done!

Got my first look at the work in progress on my 75 today. This car was a real disaster when I brought it to the body shop, she's looking real good now! I am so excited after working on this for 1-1/2 years now it looks like it's finally coming together! Hopefully I did the following picture link correctly. :hurray: :steering:

Looks like the color will most likely be back to the original white. It has the medium saddle interior, can't really go wrong with white I suppose. My wife was kind of leaning towards the maroon color used on the 2003 ZO6. What would you guys do? This is probably the hardest decision I have had to make, I was hoping to leave it up to her, but she can't make a decision either!

theres a maroon color on Z06s?? or do you mean the 50th anniversary color? that color would look very good with saddle interior!

That's the color, 50th anniversary. She is really good with colors, but then can you get into a thing where it's just not correct? Maroon was not offered in 75.

Finally decided, it will be painted with the same maroon/red color used on the 50th anniversary Vettes. My wife just loves that color! It will cost a little more because it's a ""tri-phase" paint, good thing I stopped counting $$$ on this car.
