Well, finally....

[Paul Workman]

After "sitting this one out" all driving season, I've been able to get in the queue with a very well respected frame shop that will be able to tweak the frame (bumper) horns so as to make everything line up.

Getting it staged!

I have (thanks to Brett) a "new" bumper and bumper cover, and from Jason at "Vette2Vette" I landed a replacement hood that appears to be in perfect condition, a new radiator shroud, and Pete provided a replacement radiator, and Robert DeMarco has a windshield available to be "transplanted". I bought a new air dam and all the "fixin's" to go with it. That leaves some minor bits and pieces, and painting, of course.

Mods:

My winter upgrade is limited to just a few minor items:

I plan to up the TB to 63mm and get back to an idea I have to improve the air flow on its way to the TB,

Install and oil recovery unit (really nice one from Moroso, acutally)

Putting 'er back together and painting - ready to roar come spring!

(Did I mention new brake pads? ;) )

I'll post some pix as things progress!

Was the bumper white?

Nope. That bumper went to TX with Dom's old Z.

Prolly doesn't matter WHAT break pads or rotors are on it...IF I DON'T USE THE DANG THINGS IN TIME!!:o

If I wasn't so intense on looking in the rear view mirror to find the guy racing next to me in the LS3 Silverado (with a seriously choppy idle), and getting on the brakes instead...things might have turned out better.:rolleyes::rolleyes:
