Good for you man....an American that appreciates a member of the military. To few and far between with all these lazy winers that call themselves Americans.

Default OLDFLM... "Old Flame"

I can't tell you how excited I am that Fletcher's Customs is working on the car now!! I'm 41 and have had this car since high school (1985)... it was my first car and carries alot of sentimental value and memories as you can imagine. Somehow traveling around all these 23+ years while on active duty in the Air Force I've managed to keep the car and work on it when time and money allowed. I'm anxious to see the car finally make the jump from restomod to pro-touring!! ... and that sick feeling in my gut is fading knowing that it's in good hands now... Thanks Chad!

Default KORE3 C6 Z51 brakes!

To complement my Rushforth Superspokes I called Tobin Knighton @ KORE3 and ordered up a complete C6 Z51 brake kit for my Firebird. You can't believe the quality and service that Tobin provides! He guided me through every step and offered great advice geared toward my intended driving applications.

My Firebird will have DBA 13.4" & 13" rotors front and rear with KORE3s matching black powdercoated PBR calipers and all the hardware to make the install a breeze for Chad and Jerry. And the best part? He had everything in stock and I had them in just over a week!

Tobin is great to deal with and I highly recommend KORE3 to anyone who wants a great product delivered in record time with great advice and customer service!

Check out KORE3s kits @ www.KORE3.com or call Tobin at 1-800-357-5467

V/R,
Ty

I am truly honored to be apart of this!! Giving back means so much to me and it really floors me to see the amount of respect and help folks are wanting to give back also! WE have people donating money and parts and we have some great companies coming along also. Wow what more can I say... you guys are the best!!

We have some great companies that have addressed interest in partial sponsorships and some freebies!!! But we are going to need to raise some money for Ty to get some of these parts. I'll have some more info after SEMA, but you vendors and folks are the best!!!

Companies that have expressed interest or given something already:

Hoodpins.net- thanks for the hood pins!!
Fesler
Anvil Auto
Marquez Design

You guys rock!!!
