Old Rebuild Pictures

As part of a Christmas present, my aunt gave me some of the pictures from when the vette was rebuilt back in the 80's.  It was soon after they had bought the car that it was redone.  The funny thing is that one of the pictures actually has me in it!  So apparently this is not the first time I've seen the car stripped out...  My aunt says I pointed at the car and said "broken" when I saw it.  I was like 1.5 - 2 years old at the time.

This picture actually had the date written on it, 11-04-1985. I wish the engine looked like that now!
Yep... That's me.  We think it was taken about the same time as the Polaroid of the engine.

This was after the car was all finished in 1986 (probably summer looking at the trees).




Looking at this pictures, I hope I can do as good of a job getting this thing back into shape.  So far things have been going well.  The car has wire wheels in the pictures...  It has aluminum ones on now that aren't as shiny as the wire ones.  My aunt still has the wire ones in the boxes, but I think I like the ones it has on now better.  They weigh less than the alloys on my WRX!  It's really quite surprising when you're looking at the size of the whole wheel.
