Adam Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Well friends, I posted a thread sometime back about the Corvette that my Dad and I decided to build a few years back. http://www.adamsforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=391&highlight=1962+Corvette Tomorrow morning, I'm flying to Orange County, CA to meet my Dad, and pick up the car, finally! Here are the latest photos, and I hope to have more posted of the complete car, hopefully with my Dad sitting in the driver's seat!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Slow Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Sweet! Red is the perfect color for a Corvette, sorry Junkman! I don't which is more appropriate: OR:jawdrop: or or or:burnout: Oh heck, you get them all! She's beautiful, can't wait to see some full body shots.

Adam Posted June 1, 2010 Author Share Posted June 1, 2010 Well gang, what a ride!!! Flew in yesterday at 3PM, and my Dad picked me up. We went straight to the car, which was at the builder's house. What a car!!! We walked around it a million times, top up, top down, A/C on, A/C off, etc. By the time we left an hour later, my Dad was thrilled to hit the accelerator! I followed Dad first to Dana Point, where we grew up, and saw our good friends/ x-neighbors, Ron and Kris Young. From there, I drove the car to his house in Carlsbad, AMAZING!! We are going to drive together now to Costa Mesa, where I'm jumping a flight back to Denver. Dad will drive the car all week, then give it back to Guy, the car builder, for some final tweaks. What a great trip, and thanks for an amazing Italian dinner last night Dad!! Finally, we have a car! 5 years, and 2 weeks later. . . .I love you Dad, and thanks for your patience during this build.
