    Not overly keen on the disparaging remarks about parting out this particular Vette. Salvage title that was originally cobbled together after a major side impact; clear the car wasn’t safe to drive to begin with. Glad to see it being a donor to get other vehicles back on the road instead - right decision. Glad to see you’re able to make some understandably profitable moves John to ensure your audience can see more H2’s and other cool cars back to the channel.
    If you upload it - I watch. You do you.

    I knew it wasn't long for this world lol. This wasn't a nice classic you saved from the crushers, it was a cobbled up mess that will give life to at least a few other corvette owner's. Eric has gotten more entertaining since he started working with you over at the mini resort, you guy's are funny. Chop some, save some, but in the end, a profit is what you need to live on. Yesterday i got a sweet deal on a 1954 M138A1 jeep willys with the F134 hurricane engine, and the sealed 24 volt wiring all intact, with just a couple really small holes to patch on a solid body. This thing was bought from the governot year's ago, and just driven in northern Michigan in the summer, and never street driven by an older guy who passed away a few year's ago. The outside of the body was painted a dark maroon color, but will be going back to the original military color. I have been looking for one of these for year's, because my grandpa's were in wwll, and my grandpa let us drive a 1967 mule around the farm, and for awhile had an old military jeep he drove around on the farm, but later sold to an uncle, who then sold it again. All the body tags are still on it, and the hood still has the warnings painted next to where the shovel mounts. Anyway, your happy, and so am i lol. G-d bless.

I also can't believe how many people are upset about a trashed Vette getting parted out. What was he supposed to do? Put ten grand into a 4 grand car to have a car worth maybe 10k that still isn't in great shape? Some of you don't think things through.
