In a recent thread, someone mentioned the article on the '64 Vette that was turned into a snowplow, then restored back to "normal"....ya wanna see it? Here it is! They have already removed the plow, and hydraulics at this point, and were only trying to get the goofy bodywerk off.
I can post a pic of the car with the plow on it later...Enjoy!!

Ya, there was a good article about it in the April 2010 issue of "Corvette Magazine".  It caught my eye cause it had "C3 Buyer's Guide" on the cover in white letters.  Looks like I may have to get a script to this mag!!
