Marc's 1974 Corvette Restoration Project
(last updated 2/2/2002 - car is done)

The car was originally purchased in 1987.
It has the stock 350 (195 hp) with auto transmission and all the options (leather, AC,tilt /
telescopic column, power steering, rear defrost, custom trim, power windows, etc, etc).
My intention was to clean it up (with future hopes of a full restoration) and drive it for
a while. Well, it was driven once or twice and then found its way into a garage. The
car was a NY car (you'll be able to figure that out as soon as you see it) and I eventually
moved to North Carolina in 1990 - away from the snow and salt.

Once in North Carolina I found a friend who was as equally enthusiastic about restoring
cars. So we set off on putting the car back into showroom condition.
