After 18 months I finally fired her up! I still have a lot of work to do but with any luck I should be able to take her out for a spin next week!

After 18 months I was amazed at how easily she fired up. Man was it sweet!

I know the feelin'! Mine was down about a year while I detailed the chassis, and it was like Christmas when I finally got it back on the road! Congrats!!!

It all started with replacing the carpet and then I got a bad case of oh by the ways!

If I can figure out how to post pics I will.

I am driving the vette to the body shop next week to get an estimate.

Thank you for all the encouragement on this site.

I have not driven mine for about a year, having a bunch of work done. Should be ready sometime in late July. Really anxious. Miss just putting around the hood.
