I went up to the attic but didn't find any Corvette stuff....Although I was looking around for some tools the other day and found some things from my 63. A chrome lid to the stock air cleaner and the rear spring assembly...probably some other stuff in there also....can't find the rest of the car though...

Notice how the guy tackled the engine himself? Big whoop, the engine is the easiest thing on the car to build.

The rest done by a restoration shop.

I'm strictly DIY.
