Awesome paint work and color choice. Beautiful wash on the suspension.

Looks gorgeous Mr H.
I've never really understood the Corvette rear end with the transverse leaf spring set up, It's rigidly mounted, so each end acts much like a coil spring?

Beautiful paint Mr H.
Shay...yes they do it also gives the cars better contact and handling with the road due to them allowing each rear wheel to angle to be more flat on the surface of the road. The drawback is they are weaker than the ridged rear axle designs and require much more maintenance than the others do. Hope this helps some buddy.

Re: 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1
Thanks all. I messed up with the date, don't know what I was thinking. Anyway it's a 2009 not 2014.

Nice work as usual D and that is one gorgeous shade of Blue. What did you use?

Thank you all. The paint is Tamiya's Mica Blue over a Silver Leaf undercoat. No clear coat as the shine is perfectly fine.

Re: 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1
Stellar work. Looking great. How about some clues as to how you did the toning on the exhaust?
