Well I got it running perfect, now its time to focus on the cosmetics! New wheels/tires, caliper work and a black roof completely transform my cheap Z06! Much more to come this thing is going to be showroom perfect in no time!

Hey Chris, love your stuff. Along with some of the other comments, I too was a bit shocked to see that you have only 27k subs. the only thing I can think of is that when you talk to the camera(us, the viewers) you're looking at yourself on your screen. Maybe try talking to the lens of your camera. Eye contact is pretty important. Anyway keep up the good work. Just trying to help. Cheers.

Great series of videos on the red Z06. Also, very impressive how you do most of the work yourself. My only complaint is the C6 Z06 is one of the best looking Corvettes GM ever made after 1972 and the factory wheels are a big part of why the car looks so good. The car just isnt the same without them. I would have definitely spent the money to refurbish them. Hopefully you save the wheels in case you change your mind. Same comment on the black wrap on the roof but its great that it can be easily removed.
