Re: Project: "Square Corvette"
Well "Life" keeps happening & I refuse to borrow $ to get this thing
any further than it is. At best, she makes a few events this year in her underwear. (Primer) I still need my Doors and the Nose aligned. I have the interior, but I also need that all covered. I need the 1/2 Top reworked so that it is usable, and of course the biggie. (Paint) I have stuff on Craigslist and Ebay trying to raise the $ for all the minor stuff and was hoping by Spring to just need Paint. Going to try and have a planned "Shop" day sometime in May. (I'm hoping)

Re: Project: "Square Corvette"
I know what you mean Craig. Both of mine sit for time & funds at the moment. But our rides will go again!

Re: Project: "Square Corvette"
Guess I need to update this thread. I took here down to CTC in October
and the Old Girl did pretty well considering I had less than 20 road miles on her since the "Resto Mod" was completed. Interior is all done, except for putting things in that I'll have to remove for the Painter. Half Top is over at my Body guy getting worked on at some point. I ditched glass windshield cowl in pic for a OEM radio delete cause it fits better. I also recently scored an older (Brand New, Never Used) Early SBC 1000 CFM Holley MPFI Pro-Jection 2, so I'll be ditching the Carb over the Holidays. She is still lacking a paint job, no money left for that, but that's all !!!!!

Re: Project: "Square Corvette"
Bill,
She's getting there, bit off more than I could chew. Stevo, Runs awesome, but she still needs some minor tuning. MSG, It wasn't entered, but snagged a covered parking spot to keep her out of the sun most of the day.

He bought the Aftermarket one, Didn't buy the Custom one.
Still undecided on which direction to go for weather issues.

Update: Finally has an Audition with a Painter next weekend
*My Dream Build has turned into a Forever build, but hey almost everything I have is now paid for including House so I'm not regretting it, just wish had not taken so long.
