That must be a great feeling of relief and excitement... Good luck getting it completed, you're going to have a lot of people turning their heads to check that thing out on the road dude.

Thanks guys! Won't even attempt to explain how awesome it feels to have her home. Next stop is off to the custom header guy next weekend - fingers crossed should have her started by the end of June!

The anticipation is really starting to build now ... ! Front end looks MEAN without the chrome.

T-minus 15 days and counting until I drop her off for custom LS side pipe headers. Can't wait!

What spoiler is that
thanks

Been trying to wipe the smile off my face for a few hours now :)
Next step after they finish hanging the front bumper and inner grilles is take it in for custom LS side pipe headers. Plan is to have it back on the road by the end of July!

Did you paint your t-top chrome if so could you tell me what method you or they used? Thanks and the build looks great

Thanks guys! Been a long time coming but it feels SO GOOD to drive it for the first time in almost FIVE YEARS. Few tweaks I need to do here and there but nothing but ear to ear smiles since the first time I turned the key

2011 Bentley Continental Supersports GT "Quartzite". There's a correlating Audi paint code that I'm blanking on that's cheaper however.

Been busy with work, ran errands all day in the vette today.

Gives me an even bigger smile each time I put it in gear!

I will do a 72 soon... since I am a 72 vintage myself.

Moved back to San Diego from London this weekend so plan on dropping in on the vette at the shop a little more frequently to see how things are going...

Next steps for me: measuring up the driveshaft and going through the entire suspension with it up on a lift rather than wedged underneath on my back.

Whats the tires and sizes? it looks great I am almost there.
