MY VETTE'S
FINALLY PAINTED!!!
It was completed today, and I'll be transporting her back here tomorrow. She's just a shell now, but the frame is all ready to put her on. Here are some pics...I hope you like.
For those that are curious. The paint is actually a Chrysler color...it's called Black Pearl Brilliance...I think. It has millions of flakes of mica in it, and you should see it when the sun hits it...
Take care guys...
Alan

Vette(s): Silver 1974 Convertible - L82 4 speed
Low miles (was only 8,900 when I bought it in March 2006) - Now 54K miles. Original owner bought it as an investment for son's college expenses.

It looks like a C4-style tail - is it, or is that just the way the tail light openings look?
Very nice! Can't wait to see more as it gets put back together!
I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!
