Awesome car. If I was ever lucky enough to have a Vette in the stable I wouldn't let my wife anywhere near it LOL.

Very nice..

Question do you actually do mobile detailing out of your charger, or just advertise on the back.. Charger looks sharp!

Nice work.

I had a Vette in the stable for a couple years just like that one but black and my wife loved it but was afraid to drive it..
