DuSpinnst's Corvette

After much fanfare, the Corvette has arrived!

I spent most of the evening installing my radar detector (a V1 that I have hardwired), and my iPod connector (a PXAMG). Significant work was done in taking apart the interior to run wires, but now it is all back together and you can't even tell (other than a few extra items).

Re: DuSpinnst's Corvette

Sucks to be poor. Guess I'll have to settle for a Cobalt SS.

Congrats on the new Vette! Nice color choice, BTW. If I'm or you are in the neighbordhood, can I take it for a spin??

CONGRATULATIONS! Beautiful!

Welcome to the Chevy family.

The flickr pics are too small. I love the profile shot.

Flickr pics should be super large if you click on them. I might add more to the thread, I am being lazy right now.

Other than a K+N Filter none right now.

Next year when I have some cash I'll probably get an exhaust system put on it.

Re: DuSpinnst's Corvette

Nice car!

How come you went with the green Michigan plate? Or did you just transfer it over? I think the new white with blue bar would look better, especially on a white car like that.

And a targa top too. Awesome! Ya know, I've never been in a 'Vette with the targa top off...and I don't have anyhting planned this weekend...
