Default Do you remember this car???

The Black 71 on the right


This is what it looked like Sept last year


Well I have to keep you in suspense for a couple more weeks. It is on its way to the muffler shop to get duels run back and a set of Flow Master 50's on it.
Then it goes to the painter. It is getting a new coat of 2003 50th anniv red on it. It has in it right now a new 427 hp 355 under the hood it has been through a frame on restro, all new bushings,TA's, everything that was worn out rusted stuck or ugly got replaced. The new interior is waiting. A new set of old school aluminum wheels, 50's on the rear 60's on the front. I will have some pics once it is back from the paint shop and we put the new wheels and tires on. I think you guys and gals will like how this car turns out. But you will have to wait a couple weeks. I am posting some parts for sale that we changed our minds on, or ordered the wrong part, or just will not put back on car. I have a lot to load w/pics so it will take me an hour or so.

Bob

NICE !! Great to see you back - nice year, too.
I agree. That new red looks great on any C3. Black is good too.
Can't wait to see some more.

Hey Dave
How are you my friend?? Well the car is not mine it is a friends that I have been helping him restore. It will be completely done in 4-6 weeks. I have my eye on 2 different cars right now. The 75 that vettegrrl has in C3 4 sale, and a 77 that RichT has. We are getting ready to move back to BG KY so I have to wait till we get settled there before I attempt to pick these two up. Here is a pic of hopefully my vette garage.
Vader: got the TA's at Bairs.
