Yes, I will be fabbing headrests.

It's been a while since I've been on forums (maybe since CornerCarvers?). Anyway, it looks like Neil B last posted about his Corvette 5 years ago. Unfortunately Neil succumbed to Cancer early this year. He was a long standing friend, team mate and buddy since the early 90's we got into road racing together...met our wives together and grew up building cool cars. His widow asked if I would be interested in Neil's build. While I'm a Ford guy, I couldn't turn down this offer. I will be it's caretaker and provide project updates here. Will use this thread to research what's been done to the car, because it just landed in Texas. RIP Neil...we'll take good care of her.

Very sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. Welcome to the forums and thank you for updating us.

Yes, very sorry indeed. No doubt Neil would approve of you keeping a part of his legacy alive and on the track! Thanks for keeping the thread going as well.
