I think I'm more depressed on "how much is this all gonna cost."  Actually, I'm very thankful to own such a piece of history and I respect that a lot.  Shoot, there's a lot of folks out there that would love to own an old vette but will never be able to.  I thank God everyday I wake up, it beats being underground....LOLLOL  I know it's silly gettin' all sad seeing her on the tow truck (thank God she's not in a junk yard for corvettes) and she'll be better when I get her back.  I just couldn't believe I FINALLY got that phone call that they were ready to work on her.

You are sooo right about Corvette wrecking yards. We have one here in the Twin Cities and it is the most depressing place I have ever seen! CryCry

Micki, I feel your pain. I've got both of mine down. I know what you are going through. Maybe you can do what I do and thats listening to Boston, ACDC (I just got Black Ice) The Beatles White album comes to mind. You might want to throw in a little ELO. You know that our music tastes are the same. However I'd start with Boston and for me I remember that I do have 2 Vettes, there not dead they just don't feel very well right now.
Hey, I loves ya just the same!!!Big%20smile

Micki you are looking at it all wrong.
