also is there a way to find out how many 2 tone vettes had the sport stripe? I am wondering if it makes it more rare? I didn't realize this (hubby did) but the whole car had been repainted not just the back end and they didn't do the stripe on the hood, that was news to me, they really did a...

I can't find what the original sport stripe color was on the vette, at some point it was changed so I think I know what it was but an online search can't confirm it. Any ideas?

I was hoping I could get some info from the picture to figure out what size it might be. I sure wasn't going to buy it for $250.

he does have a sense of humor, he married me after all ;-) Its not done, but the end is near. Mostly the rear end and the interior and put the exhaust back on. he can draw really well, I think he does best with things that are caricatures. I will try and get a picture of the one he did for the...

I was just wondering the same thing about the spare tire size. Right now I have nothing back there and I too need to find something if for nothing more than weight. I am waiting for the build sheet to arrive, will the info be on there?

Hi Craig! How are you doing? :w I actually did that pencil trick after trying the young child to read it, but its still not so easy with the 1's and L's. Thats cool to know its "born on date' or pretty close to it. I am actually turning the interior into more of a two tone look. The silver...

working on my car!! This picture was on the kitchen table this morning: and no its not done! But I think he is ;-) PS I can't get the picture to rotate here.

wow 15! that is very impressive, you must be one of the younger people on this site. Good luck with your restoration. For sure ebay is a great resource and I just ordered interior carptes and hardware from Wilcox via ebay. They get great reviews around here and their prices seem good. Ecklers...

what is is the spring rating on it?

Thank you John! Thats very impressive :-) Ordering the carpet from wilcox and they don't have a silver gray, just gray so I wanted to make sure I was ordering the right carpet. The seats in it were leather and I replaced them with leather, but Virgina Vettes referred to it as Silver Gray.

Okay so I thought I would read the plate on the drivers door frame and this is what I came up with but some letters are hard to read, whether they are "L" or "I". C 10E L00361 L31 L31 13U 99M E Now if my head was 3" wide perhaps these letters would look like something else. Any ideas what...

Interior carpet set, air vents, sills all ordered :-) Thank you!

Welcome and safe driving! She is a beauty I like the white and the convertible, it looks really nice. Be careful thats a lot of hp, don't get sucked into idjiots that want to race you. :w

I'm sorry to hear about your mom, it is amazing these days how many people now survive cancer. My dad did a whole month of radiation for skin cancer on his shin, he went Mon - Friday for a month of treatment and so far flying colors and I wish the same for your mom. I am sure having a project...

Beautiful scenery, beautiful car :-) Looks like a great place to drive.

a new one is $130 on ebay (lots more on Ecklers). I don't like spending money on things I can't see!! But it is a pain when the door won't close right. Any sources on used ones? The interior is all torn apart. Husband did some nice painting of all the parts and its looking really nice...

Thanks Jane Ann!

Thanks Stefan, It took a bit but I finally found the section you were talking about, I was just having a mental block. :w
