Vette(s): 1975 C3 Red, T-Tops, Black Interior. All I need is time and money! Getting there!
Tongue   The Project Has Begun!
 
My C3 is in the body shop at the college and the work is started.  It's going to be another article in Corvette Enthuisist Magazine.
 
The plan is to have it ready for paint within a month.  Here is the  beginning just sitting in the shop, then after the second day!
 
 
 
3M is one of the sponsers of products for the magazine article, and the car.   If it's done in time they want to display it at Michigan International Raceway at a 3M sponsored NASCAR race in August.
 
The interior may not be done then, but the nearby sign will say it's a work in progress, as long as the body is done.
 
They want to get some tickets for the students who are doing the work.

Keep hammering on them to get it done but stress quality.  Waiting for the DONE pics.  Looking good.

Corvettes and women are the same...You want to make love to them but they keep breaking down.

Hey Kyster,
You have always been real helpful to the rest of us as we improve our Corvettes.
