Now I have 3 more weekends to get the front end done before the show. I have a few little surprises but you'll all have to come to the Motorama to see!

I think I know what one of your surprises is Mike, but I will keep my mouth shut.
Now I have to wait longer than anyone to see the improved Big Red. Thanks buddy!!

Finished the Aftreburner Halo mod. I can't believe how easy it is to take off the rear fascia. Probably easier to pop one side loose to change an outer lamp than to try and contort my hams in the space under the plastic cover. (The sequential signal harness doesn't give you much to grab.)

Looks great Jon. Your Camaro just keeps looking better and better.

Thanks Jerry! Just a couple of small touches this year.

Nice can't wait to see what you have done! I'll try to make it to Motorama but not sure if I will have my car back by then. Just looked at the upcoming schedule for ESTA and opening day/ the first test and tune is April 13th. i need to get my butt in gear if I am going to install everything I need to before then, not to mention still need to order drag radials for my new wheels.

For anyone interested, Tommy is selling Bizzzard, aka VSV-1. He's taking the wrap off this week. $23,000 cash takes it. Needs so front lip work and a O2 sensor. Contact him on Facebook or NY5THGEN.

Great finish for sure. 1st, 4th, and 5th for National Guard!! Happy too

No different than the basketball babble. Channel 3 didn't mention Daytona one time yesterday morning but were still going on about some Syracuse game that was 2 days earlier.

Just wanted to let you guys know that I ordered my 2014 Corvette Stingray Z51 2LT today. My dealer took $2,000 off MSRP so it only came to $65,000 before tax, and $70,000 after tax. It's the first car that I've ever paid for completely by myself so it's a fairly big accomplishment in my life.

In case you're wondering, some of the options that I added were Performance Exhaust, Magnetic Selective Ride Control (also used by Ferrari!), Carbon Fiber Interior Trim, Personalized Plaque, and obviously the Z51 and 2LT package.

The new C7 Corvette is an incredible car and I would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone who is looking to buy a new car. I've researched it for over a year now so if you ever have any questions about the car, feel free to ask me. Once the car arrives in a couple of months I will definitely be hitting up Sylvan Beach and some other local shows, so I will definitely keep an eye out for any Upstate C5 memebrs!
