Looks good. I like the interesting effect caused by the fall sunlight in the first pic.


Thanks! I was surprised when I saw that! I took the pics with the camera on my phone. They came out better than I thought they would!

Cool.

Who did the seat covers? Did you get them with new foam or reuse the old stuff?

I need to do that.






Thanks! The seat covers are Iggee, and they're installed right over the seats, with no extra cushions, etc.
The previous owner had them installed, and he also had them add the 40'th Anniversary you see there on the headrest.
I'm still not sold on that, and I'm thinking of dying the letters black, or maybe red, to blend in with the seats.
Just not sure!

Just getting stared with detailing the engine bay.
I went ahead and painted the fuel rail covers, and added some SS inserts on the valve covers. The only thing I'm going to do with the rest of it is give it a good cleaning and shine it up! (May paint the ASR cover to match fuel rail covers, maybe!)

Thanks for the welcome!
No, I didn't make it on the New Bern trip, but it would have been a nice cruise! Happy New Year!

Welcome to the Guru!!

I absolutely love your car!! Oh --- It looks a little familiar! Yes, it does look like mine.

Where are you from? How long have you had your Vette?


Thank you sir! That's a mighty fine Vette you've got there too! Very Nice!
I'm originally from Louisiana, but have lived in NC for the past 20 years! I've had my Vette for just over a year now, and loved every minute of it!

That's how it started with the heater core on my 93LT1. I had already replaced the radiator/water pump/all hoses, etc, and then I started getting that faint smell of antifreeze in the car. It was leaking slightly from the heater core and you could see a few spots on the carpet!
Since it was the start of summer, I bypassed the core. Finally, after months of procrastination, I worked up the courage to replace the core myself. I completed the job this past Sunday, and all is well!
