Vette(s): 1979, 350sb, as my kids affectionately call it "shit brown" Corvette purchased in 1996. 84,000+ miles. Not a show car, but I love her just the same.
Wowwwww!!!!!!  That's a REAL bummer.  I remember a few years back when I had a lot of maintenance done on the Pride and Joy, and I fired her up in the garage and let her run for a few minutes.  When I lifted the hood I got a STRONG odor of gasoline!  Went to the passenger side and had a veritable river of gas pouring onto the intake and running off the back of the motor!  Turned out that the new fuel filter housing had not been screwed back together completely!  Luckily it was a few minutes fix.  Sure am glad I didn't take it out for a spin right away.  Now I almost always raise the hood and check to make sure there are no leaks before heading out.
 
Glad to know you're okay, and the vette suffered minor damage.  Keep us informed on your progress with the reconstruction and we'll see how MINOR this damage is to the ole wallet!
