vette is my roommate's boss's car that he drives around whenever it decides to run. I believe everything is original but the body I believe has been restored. Funny thing is he's brought home a brand new Aston Martin V8 Vantage and a Gallardo and people will stop in the middle of the street, walk up to the garage and say "what a beautiful car" and as I start to talk about the new exotic, people will note that they were actually reffering to the vette!?

Well since I don't have any updates on the G, I might as well show what I've been doing in the mean time...





I swear I'll never restore another old geezer like this. I've killed about 40 spiders, found a freaking brown recluse (it was dead but still) and killed a ton of little ant looking things that I still don't know what they are. I've also broken about 2 dozen rusty bolts, cut every inch of my hands and lucky for me I got a tetanus shot a while back!
