1997 Chevy Corvette coupe

Hello My Name is Dawn and I am the owner of a
1997 Chevy Corvette
Owned it since it was bone stock and only started to modify it when I got it paid off, and at that point it had 160,000 miles on it.
I figured I would never be able to resale it with those miles and I entered a few car shows with it stock and had some crazy ideas of what I wanted to turn this car into.
So I slowly did one peice at a time and it is forever changing..
I know to be in the "show" crowd you have to keep things fresh and new.
People that already have seen your car, you want to draw in at the next show because they can tell "there is something different about that car since I seen it last"
Ive been on display a few times at large shows with ProCharger.
So I know what it takes to be a "display vehicle"
Its been in a few calender shoots and won many awards from best of show / best of paint
Also we race this car. Im on the East coast so thats pretty much where we show and race it.
Ive been to Florida were we showed at Disneyworld and the RaceRock and raced at Gainesville Dragway
My local track is Maple Grove here in Pa. I entened Super Chevy Show there every year and show or race it there.
Also raced at Atco and Englishtown in New Jersey.
Now onto the cars specs.

I would love to do a custom stereo system in the car yet and Lights,also would love to add a lambo door kit to the car.
everything like shocks and struts are stock would love to test products as well. I know what it takes to keep the cars in shape for shows as Ive been showing this car for 5 years now and trust me anything would help even a bolt or a screw lol. Thanks for looking at my thread and checking out my car
Its a part of our family. And we all enjoy showing her off...
