So, hey- it's been a couple months and there have been no updates on the car. What's going on with it? Well it is sitting securely in a corner of the shop waiting patiently for us to get back to her. Business is booming and we have been having a blast restoring customers' cars.
Remember that last post I made about the importance of budgets? Initially we had planned on selling the 1982 Collectors Edition Corvette and use that money to restore the Mach 1. However, I have been having so much fun driving it, we decided to keep it. Therefore the initial budget has shifted. Though it might not get finished in the time frame first imagined, it will still get done.
Slower might work out even better in this case, as it will allow time for more customization that the original plan of going back all stock. Now there is time to fabricate a new dash, console and other 'wild imagination' possibilities. I am thinking stock on the outside, but when you look inside- all updated, streamlined, and lots of toys. After all, it is my #2 dream car (#1 is a chopped '33 Ford).
