Thanks.  But... since last november its all my brother. I just had him load up all the parts i gatherd up through the years that i never had time to install. I now just offer opinion😁

He got the arm rest repaired and back on, and a new black steering wheel wrap. He decided to replace the radiator, its been seeping around the filler neck and the hose bungs. Repairable, but the core was looking a bit rough. Ordered a new aluminium one, which he will paint black and keep the original.... just because.

Decided not to install just yet as direct replacement seldom is that. He wants to take it to a local Corvette parts vendors customer appriciation day car show this weekend.

Sweet! Looks like a mint with strawberry filling. Love the white and red.

Well he made his maiden voyage to the city and back. First 60 mile trip in over 11yrs. Said the show had a lot of nice Vettes there, including a super nice '58, factory blue met w/blue interior.  He didnt think to get any pictures ☹️  He said people kept gravitating to Dads 58. Then, what he didn't even see coming.... got a "Best Corvette" pick. He didn't know how, there were nicer Vettes there.

Got a quick cameo appearence on the area news feed. I guess all the proceeds from the show went to the local Highschool auto shop. That's pretty cool, not too many of those left anymore. My tiny town shut down the highschool auto shop late 60's early 70s.

Got home, transmision was leaking a bit of grease out of the front cone and he said one of shocks had oil leaking out of it. Clean up.... isle 2.    Said he could feel it needed shocks.
