Last day, last chance gang. Still lots of cars missing from the lineup. Old or new pics, show your true colors. (Like I should have to plead for people to show off their Vette).

Those are the Cray wheels. I like them as they bear a similarity to BBS RX wheels. I'll get some closeups posted.
The original wheels were really bad, peeling and in bad shape.

Beautiful cars, everyone!

Crappy day here, but I managed to snap a couple pics. Windy as hell, junk blowing all over the place. Anyway, the first 2 are from today, and the others are from the last couple years.

'96 LT4, about 58K on the clock now.

Kinda embarrased to post a pic of mine, after seeing all the beautiful pics and backgrounds of all your verts. But thought I would post a pic of my project anyway.

No need to be embarrased. Like I said. All these cars are works in progress. Some are just a little further along than others.


Hey Brad? Didn't you just re-do that motor? You mean there's 58xxx on the body. What, maybe 1000 on the motor?

I think it's been about 10-11K since the motor was apart. All that's new in it is one rod, a re-ground crank, bearings and a Hot Cam. And a bunch of new gaskets, of course. My latest additions are putting the stock exhaust manifolds back on and adding the little bowtie wire looms.

Start mentally forming your favorite choice. Only several hours left for the show. Here are the participants I have to date. If you are not on the list and you posted pics please let me know so I can add your name. In the Vote thread (when it's posted tomorrow 5/31/11) please state your favorite by owners screen name. Votes will be tallied and the winner notified. DO NOT VOTE IN THIS THREAD. As a courtesy to others please consider voting for someone other than yourself. Thanks.

I should have looked before I leaped. I had to convert a whole bunch of photobucket images. It's done now though.
