Thanks. Wish I always had that affect on the ladies. Lol

Absolutely beautiful. I would gladly trade my marriage for a ride like this.

Ask, and Ye shall receive? Great car, cool video. No shots of the passenger side - is that just by chance?

Since I'm on a roll, how about some video of the car going down the road?

I finished the car last year and for some reason have never taken any video. I was just getting into road racing the C5 about the same time so I guess I was a little distracted. I will definately get some good video of it this year. The pics in the slideshow were the first ones I came across in my computer. You can see some passenger side pics in my photobucket album if you search my user name perksolds.

How much, if i may ask is "a crap load of money" ?

And how much did it cost you in the first place (unrestored) ?
