Never leave the garage doors open with strong wind...........some piece of plastic will be blown right in when you're not watching !
1968 Buick Opel The only difference is the head lights are vacuum operated and Quarter mile times :laugh: AL.
The year was 1968!!! I'm a Buick guy and do not belong to any Corvette clubs just one super Buick club; BPG . I've owned this 68 over 20 years and two marrages, I think this a keeper like my present wife :grin: This is a frame off restoration that I have done everything but the body work. If you guys show any interest I post more pixs later as the restoration countinues. AL.

Al, that's a beautiful corvette you have! I think we have green blood running through our veins as I find all my vehicles are green. :grin: When I spoke to my father today he asked why I didn't get the rest of the frame painted instead of just the frontend and mentioned I should've done a frame-off restoration on the car :shock: If you got more pics, load'em up so we can all see :TU:
The year was 1968!!! All of you guys thanks for the kind words, your the best!!! :TU: I found it in someones back yard back in the early 80s and she been with me ever since. After owning her and enjoying her I deceided to do a frame off restoration and change the color back to the British Green it was when it was new (someone painted it gold :rant: ) Its a lot of hard work to do them right and you need do your homework, but its FUN work:grin: AL.
The year was 1968!!! Ken, thanks!!! as I posted this is still on going and so far the new wiring harness is run and now fitting the carpet after that comes the fun part ; the seats :rant: . I'll do the engine pixs when I reinstall the Chrome ignition shielding and n.o.s. dated radiator. AL.
