It has been a fun project. I want to do- it again but I like this color too much to change ��

Great daily driver/grocery getter

Gets about 22mpg around town and up to 32mpg on long trips

I'm so happy to see this: a Corvette actually on the road and being driven/enjoyed at every opportunity.

I pains me to see any performance car that lives it's life tucked away in a garage and never sees the road. The only way to truly enjoy the vehicle as it's creators intended to to drive the pants off of it. Not sitting in the garage to be looked at once in a while.

Back on topic: OP, have you PlastiDip'ed wheels? I'm buying a set of autocross wheels and they don't come in the color I want. I'm thinking of PlastiDip to make them the color I want. Since they won't be my daily driven set the risk of it not going well would be low and I could always just peel it off.
