There's quite a bit of work happening on the sidelines yet, 69 DIRTY RAT, (3) additional gauges going in, changing to the Z06 brake set-up, some new "Lingenfelter 427" side and back chrome emblems, adding stainless steel screening behind all of the "openings" on the car, finishing the top side of the new hood opening, installing a shift lite,installing a pad under the carpeting that shields against heat and noise, installing a new oversize capacity radiator which contains a additional engine oil cooler, and a transmission oil cooler, etc, etc...;eek
With all that snow on the roof, I'm not going inside till the snow is gone!...:ado Maybe I could help it along with one of these, we were having a tailgate party in a parking lot, and I was cooking a Duck, you can see the Orange web-feet sticking out of the bottom of the flame...:mmm..........J/K

Wow TRJ, those lingerfelter guys don't muck around, you've had more work done on your vette in the last couple of months than whats been done on my vette in the last one and a half years. You got to be happy when you see progress like this.

You're so right MADVET, they are the greatest, and this is with a lost week of work because there was so much snow, the employees couldn't get to work...I'm very happy with the progress...;42....actually, they have had my car since January 19th, which is about 42 days, including the lost week. Of course, to me, it seems like my car has been gone for about a year!...:grr
