Talking The Vette is finally home!!!

I never thought this day would actually come but it has. I finally have my Vette at home. It sure is nice to go out to the garages and open the door to find my car there. I have only gotten to wipe it down and take a short spin around the block so far. I am sure that as I put a few miles on it it may have a few bugs to work out but this is close to a finished project now. I will update this post with my driving impressions and I will be taking a lot more photos which I will forward to Scott so he can post them. Thanks for letting me post and show my car on your board.

Thanks. Yes the hood is different then stock. It is hand made from aluminum to somewhat ressemble a 67 big block hood. The stinger is slightly wider and higher then a stock one would have been Also we included the functional vents with hand built billet accents in the front edge which help exit air that comes from the grill through the intercoolers.

Next to the Junk Yard Dog that car had to be the most visible car in Boyd's garage all season long. Even when they were doing other projects your car could always be found in the background, just sitting there patiently for someone to work on her. What a long, arduous journey this has been for you. Congrats on finally getting her home and please, if you decide to stretch her legs a bit, make sure someone is present with a camcorder so we can hear that beautiful engine make some noise.
