Okay it opens the page, and it's title "Starting the Corvette fer Reals" but all I see is a black screen instead of the video with white text "We're sorry, this video is no longer available."

It can't be just me... can it?

Is there the "High Quality" version link?
I get that with some videos and I found that it works if I click it.

BTW - you should see the ghetto rig on the pipes until we get the new ones made... it makes the Land Cruiser look professional.

Yes, fixed.

HELL YEAH!!! Sounds great...
I bet it feels good to get her started.

Header wrap smoking like a ****!

My first ride ever in a vette was in brand new '76 sting ray. I remember it clearly. It's a neat car. Even the door handles are cool.

Yeah once the interior is done; it will be so much fun!!!

I am sooo glad I got it running; what a huge weight off my shoulders; and I learned to not trust Haynes manuals.

Hard to say... the torque will definitely be there; but over a long straight I should do ok against it. Obviously; suspension is a big advantage to me in any kind of road course.

Then again it will end up weighing less than mine; may have to get a video of 1/4 mile run...have to sail them to Maui to do it though.
