I wish I had postponed paying back my college loan and picked this up as a second car instead.

You gf must be verythankful to be driving around in such a cool car.

she needs to get her *** fixed first, then we can take her out. gotta luv it! damage apraisal..$2000+ I fix for free. whoda thunkit. got a friend who's going to let me use his rack(that sounds funny unless it's his wife's because she's...ummnevermind) to straighten out the trunk problem. then i can buff it then show it off, but Jen does get to drive it to work now. I love the new ride it's got! It's pretty darn stiff right now, and the shocks are set at 2/3 out of 10, 10 being the harshest. I asume eventually they'll break in a bit and soften up. The front dropped lower then I thought it would, but I think it looks sharp. Just waiting to see what it looks like after the springs settle. Keep in mind these pics were taken about 30 minutes after I took the floor jacks out. Thanks for the compliment tony tone!

Yup, it's her's. I claim it as I am the dedicated mechanic. Whatever that's worth.:rolleyes

That's all the pics i've taken so far. just fired those off right after i finished the springs and struts that night to show off to you guys/gals. I'll take some more good ones in the daylight after I get the paint all shined up.

Man you did a great job! I know who to call when I get my Coil-overs.;) The best part is when your car and your G/F's car are parked next to each other. Infiniti's to the 2nd power! I have Nissan's to the 2nd power!

Thanks but I'd take your Stingray first. That was my favorite vette body style. My dad had a 69 stingray..was that the year where it was 69 1/2 or soemthing? Anyway I liked the older stingray bodies because of the rear window..and they were prone to flying i believe. That's when that mini spoiler built onto the rear came in.

Nice thanks for the props on the Vette!Ive been in love with vettes since I was 15.The down side to having a 26 year old car(even if it is a Vette)is it needs attention all the time.I used to drive it 4-5 times a week and as time went on and I was promoted 3 or 4 times I ran out of time.Now from it just sitting im having all sorts of little problems.Oh well,such is life.I like the 63-74's as old vettes go,and the 93-96 and then the 2001-2003's.Any way I could go on for days on this subject.Just so everyone knows as much as I love Vettes id trade it or sell it today for a 94-96 300zxTT or a 2002 350z!
