The Vette is indeed a 25th anniversary, in the pic above the decals have not yet been put on.....Believe it or not but the silver is rim color.....and the grey a jag color...THey dont exactly make laquer based paint anymore....
THe third brake light is a little bit complicated.....First I installed the brake light, since early cars dont have them....then I redid my strip of Vinyl across the top of the hatch window as you can see in the pic, then after putting on the vinyl I used a template to cut out the shape of the decal right obove the third brake light....Then after that section was cut out I simply placed the decal over the cut out...and walla.......I also am using one of Iceshark's HAlogen bulbs in there, for that little bit extra light output....And yes you can really see it quite well when it lights up, at night and day.....Mainly night of course....A little bit more tricky to do then it sounds...
MAtt....YOur motor is almost done..? Dude when you taking that test drive up by us here in MIllTown.......Im glad to hear that your making progress....And BTW...You still want that header panel painted, and I have been thinking about a better use for those hella's you have sitting there....I have some ideas im working on........

Damian - I am working on it. Getting the rest of the needed hardware in the next day or two, taking some time off. Hope to have the engine bay more complete by the weekend as well as the exhaust. Depends on the availability of the hardware.
Yes, I do need to have the panel repainted as well as fill the holes. I would love to know what you are cooking up for the lights. I am ready to drop the stock ones.

Hey Matt, I'm just going to be sitting around my house this week and the next for the most part. If you want any help just shoot me a PM or call me.
Could have fooled me 
...and yes the car still runs.

I have to go to Indy this weekend and pick up some 13B cores so I can build another motor for the convertible. I will probably work on the car all day Friday and Sunday.
