Vette(s): Picked it up and it running good now. Just need to do a few more things and she will be 100 percent.

[QUOTE=dwright]Congratulations Greg, that's a great trophy.
Good looking paint on your '75.[/QUOTE]

Thanks for the compliment. That is the so called original paint. My uncle who owned the car before me was in a couple minor accidents and there are 3 coats on the car because they couldn't match the color too well back then. That paint is about 27 years old. When I get the bumpers replaced over this winter, it is getting a new paint job. It should look like new when I get done with it. The doors, hood and headlights will get realigned and the rear end redone to raise it an inch or so. The back end looks a little low in comparison to the front plus the rear wheels look like they are starting to slant out a little on the bottom.

JimG,
You are a lot more forgiving than me. I don't let them touch my Vette, let alone sit on it.
How long did it take you to remove the prints?
Or are you still working on it?


BTW, I wasn't talking about finger or hand prints.

Man, I hate getting old. All of these girls look to be about my oldest daughters age (22). With her younger sister being 16 it sure takes the wind out of your sails quick!
At any rate nice pics of the cars, and congrats to Dave & Greg for their respective trophy finishes!!!
