| I was browsing through old e-mails and found one from Gary. It it he explained that he'd been smitten by the the kit car bug, and sent me a number of pictures of his work in progress. I must have been in a hurry that day, and totally forgot about his e-mail. Below are some of the pictures Gary sent, showing the body modifications he is doing. This car certainly deserves a page here, because I am sure it will be very nice when done, and it is interesting and instructive to watch the modification process. Once I get these pictures in place I will be contacting Gary to get a progress report, and hopefully, some updated pictures. | |

Below you can see Gary has reglassed the pieces and see the blend work. |

They don't make Corvairs like they used to! |
Keep 'em coming Gary, looks like you are on your way to beautiful and unique GT.
