Dang! However, it is comforting to know we have plenty of company when it comes to the dreaded tinworm.

They were pretty nice. Got them from a company up in Canada. They're close enough to be worth the price. A few modifications here and there and they'll be like new.

The surgery continues. I decided to replace the entire rear panel the subframes attach to rather than piece them together like I started to do. It will be a much cleaner approach.

Here's a shot of the Z06 Corvette fan and radiator I plan to run. It fits in the available space pretty well. I'll have to extend the shroud where the stock air extractor duct sat since it won't fit my application.
