I have watched your progress the last few years and I don't get all the secrecy about your corvette.
It would interesting to see what 60k gets on a car like that. It's not some special government project is it?
You need to concentrate on just 1 project, you seem to be all over the place when talking about various cars and trades and pipe dreams. I'm not criticizing you just trying to figure out where you are going with all of this.
Sometimes you just have to cut your losses, pack it up and move on. I know, I have had to do that several times. It's not pretty and it hurts but in the end everything works out.
Good luck to you Louis.
