So Hoosiers and Bridgestones it is, huh? Those new wheels look very nice. What size are the Bridgestones?

PS Looks like someone's been cleaning up the Batcave of all the batshit. Someone new hanging around?

StormKitty must be sleeping. The wheels are new custom made. Look for previous posts on these. The brakes are Corvette ceramic. Look for previous posts on these, too.

Hey Ed,
Thanks buddy,, I look forward to seeing you & your lovely wife and your latest GT updates !! :thumbsup

Hey Bill,
The plastic is a stationary cover for the GT. When I raise the car it is fully covered but the cover does not touch the car. I built a PVC frame that attaches to the top of the lift, I have a transparent plastic sheet that fits over the frame.
As Frank would say yes sometimes I am a Lazycat. This saves on covering and uncovering the car and if the car is a little dusty you can still have it covered but you do not have to physically drag a cover over the body,,:biggrin
