Story:
I actually just went out for a drive in my daily driver - just over 10 years ago now. I passed an american dealer ship ( very few of these exist here in the UK) and he had a number of cars in - on being my vette.  I took it out for a test drive and it was like nothing on offer here and was a real head turner simply from the noise let alone the looks. I was sold and put a deposit down there and then.  The rest is history.  I've had the car since december 1999, it originally left the factory bronze on bronze.  But was red when I bought it.  For a number of years I could only just afford to keep it running , and for a time it spent 12 months off the road layed up in my garage.  However with a change of job came more money and the fun could start.  Future plans will include and engine overhaul and upgrade and also a rebuild on the trans.

I've actually managed to track some of this cars history too. It was built on Oct 31st ( Halloween) and shipped to Texas, where it had 2 owners before coming to the UK as a personal import by a US serviceman.  I have tried, and am still trying to track him down as I think he may like to see what I've made of his old Vette  :)

Beautiful car! I saw this on the other forum. Welcome.

great looking vette. good luck with it.

Wow you've done a lot---what a change---looks GREAT---very unique !!!

Looks sharp!

As the Weather in the UK is now not really conducive to working on or driving the vette - I've moved to decorating the garage instead ;)

I love what you've done.

Fantastic art work !  (vette and garage)
