An old issue of Corvette News had a '75 (I believe) Silver Coupe with Silver Leather interior as the cover car. Always loved that combination. Silver with the gunmetal interior should offer just enough contrast to be Extra https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif. Now,.......... what color top? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/blush.gif

As for the rack, I could go either way. Might be cool to leave it in place.

Overall I give it https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif.

The car will have the original white top again if we paint it silver. The car still has its orig dated rally wheels and orig white lettered spare.
