Me either. Can't see anything.

[Derrick]

now can you guys see the pics?

[RodsnRides]

I sure can and that red looks great! That really pops! Especially when you look at the "old". What is the official name of the color and brand of paint?

Did you remove the little key switch over the word "Stingray" for the alarm system? Or did it never have one? Or am I thinking wrong year?

It looks good. Nice job on that paint.

17x8 inch wheels with a +15 offset, I used 1" spacers in the back and they barely clear the emergency break cable. I didn't use any spacers up front and I have about 1/16" clearance. I'm thinking about putting some spacers up front just to be on the safe side. As far as tires go, 255s up front and 275s in back. 275s will fit up front if anyone is wondering. I went with BfGoodrich G-Force.

By the way, the spacers are made of aluminum and have their own studs.

Ok, great, I can view the pics on the link you provided. What a transformation. Your Vette looks great. To Echo RodsnRides question, did you remove the alarm key switch? I've been going back and forth over removing mine since it does not work and I'm not quite sure I am going to fix it. The only reason I would consider leaving it, is to keep the stock look.

My car wasn't equiped with the original factory alarm key switch. I think I would probably go ahead and remove the switch if it was. I think the car looks a little more smooth / clean without it.

By the way, I had an aftermarket viper alarm system installed in the car a couple weeks ago, which works great.

VERY nice! I love those cragers.
