Matt could you tell me who made your driveshaft? I looked back and did not see any information concerning it. What material did you have it made out of? Any information you could send my way would be greatly appreciated.

Sweet ride!!! A friend of mine had a Vette similar and it was awesome. You just dont see that many old Vettes any more cruising down the road. They are a head turner for sure!!

Thanks for the info.

I'll be long hauling. I should have the car back by labor day. So a little paint jail, but I'll have the vette and my dads 70 elcamino (lm7/4l60) for the summer. After PT he is taking my camaro to NY where my painter is. And when I got to get the camaro I'll drive his elcamino home.

Finally got around to picking up the rear seat, interior is done. It gets aligned this week.

I ran over a bird on a "track" at about 100 mph in a t56 equipped lt1 9C1 caprice... found the bird in the driverside caliper a week later... well... most of it.
