At C3 Starship's behest, I put some old pics in the gallery. They are scanned prints so not the best and since it's a mess now, can't get any new digital ones. They're on pg 3 but don't know if that stays the same. Not sure how the albums are ordered.

For those with a '68 to early '81, there's a pic of the St. Louis plant (your car's birthplace). That's as close as they'd let us get w/ a camera. After takingthe tour, I could see why the quality was a little suspect as the line reminded of the early films of Model Ts coming off the line.

Here's one that was too big for gallery when it was new before any mods except for passenger side mirror.

I like the white wall tires as they bring back the older days. Sorry fellas', I REALLY miss the days of the "older" way of doing things, not just with cars. I also think that the front end on your 'Vette, although maybe not as aerodynamic as my '81, is so damn much more practical as I'm tired as heck of having to hit EVERY bump or dip at a 45 degree angle so as not to "wammy" the bottom front of my car.
You've kept your 'Vette in GREAT shape!

What size tires did you have on the vectors?

RE: Photos up
 

Thanks to all. Just didn't have any digital pics, so had to scan and crop.

Texas Jim: Sharp eye on the W/Ws. Those were the OEM Firestone 500 radials (allill: GR70-15) which I sold to a friend before they were recalled. Remember that? Then my friend got a free set of new tires after he'd worn my old ones out. :D I wasn't in to the RWLs yet, so paid extra for the white strip sidewalls. [:o] Replaced them w/ BFG RWL 255/60-15s and plan to put another set of those on when I get it back on the road.

pg: The FI was a three month experiment back in the car's early days. Still have it and got some tips from a FI pro which should fix my problems. The car show was also in the early days when it was easy to clean up. Since it was a daily driver and I'm in the rust belt, it got to be a real pain to compete with the "trailer queens".

Work left to do: replace seals in the M20, rebuild steering control valve, rebuild VIR (A/C), rebuild Q-jet, rebuild front suspension, install eng/tran.. Then hopefully if the engine runs, will drive for awhile then strip it down for its second repaint.

3. Now click on "Add Album".....
4. Enter a title name and click OK.

You will see "Add Photo" in red, click on that.
6. The next page shows spaces to download your photos.
7. Click on "Browse", that will allow you to access photos on your computer. I suggest that you download one at at time, otherwise it may take a while for multiple pics to load.
Can't wait to see your album. :)

Hi C3Starship

I put some pics of my Corvette in the Album. thanks for your help. I will add more pics as soon as I do more jobs on my car ( suspensions and some other things)
Actually I'm making also some short video clips ( 10 sec)of my Vette's riding. I think it will be a great addiction to the Forum, the possibility to show short clips with sound :so we can enjoyand compareour engines' sound and see our Vettes riding

I take the chance to thank you and all the other Forum's membersfor the great help in solving troubles, restoring and enjoying my Corvette
Aldo
