It has been done but there were delays since Jay never put a Chevy motor/trans setup plus tilt steering etc etc. He wasnt familiar with the suppliers so he had some issues that were not his fault so he offered for my car to stay there for the winter so my wife didnt have to be kicked out of the garage. If i had to go out to the garage all winter and just stare at it i would of went crazy. These cars do sound and look good though.

You know you were tempted to bring it home to suffer that great torture, admit it! Curious, what lead you to select the Chevy engine / trans - familiarity from your vette?

Funny you mention the car seat. I too would bring my son in the vette (who is now 14) along everywhere I go. The booster seat left permanent marks - and I love it. Reminds me of the adventures every time I get in for a ride. I'd also get side-way looks from people who disapproved of putting a youngster in the vette (airbag concerns, etc.). My son and I would simply turn to them and give a thumbs up. Worked every time.

Given you're so close to VMS, after the car is done and I'm up that way for whatever reason, I'll be sure to let you know. Perhaps we can meet up at VMS.

Also, if you're ever interested in 1/2 mile events to see how your car runs all out (Cobra or Vette), let me know. I'll introduce you to a few events.

Congrats again.
