    neat story doc, you brought a derelict classic back to life. Good thing you are a psychologist. You didn't need to go far for help when your head got out of whack over that project...

        From one psychologist to another-You are a sick puppy to take on a project like that. Congratulations! Bill

                Article was posted on Linkedin. It was not submitted to the Restorer.

                  It's good story, I was king of making a suggestion. Most of us are not on the TDB. Others would like it.

                    Richard,

                    Congratulations on a great accomplishment. You did a fantastic job on the '58, and a great story to go along with it all. I won't forget the day you called after you took it for it's first ride. You were so excited, and I felt your excitement like I did on my first ride. Great fun.

                    Yes, I agree..... that'd be a great Restorer article for the thousands of other members who don't visit here.

                    Rich

                      Thanks Rich for all your help. You were a life/Corvette saver.

                        As suggested, I submitted the article to The Corvette Restorer for consideration.

                          Rich, Job well done (and on a black car no less), article well written, and interesting told from a human psychology (rather than technical) perspective, as would be expected given your training. Like many of us, your enjoyment of the resurrection makes all the time and money worth it. Given their distinctive washboard hood and chrome spears on the deck, 58s are my favorite C1s. Congratulations and drive her in good health.
