Default VietNam Vette Cling

Does anybody know if the VietNam Veteran Corvette Club clings are still available or who I can get one from for a buddy of mine who served in 67-68?

Yeah, I sent him a private message, but never heard back. Guess he might not be on here anymore. It was worth a shot. Trying to help a buddy.

Never heard of a "Cling".

What's that word mean?

I assume you are talking about the patch that was available? If your buddy is a Vietnam Vet then I would be happy to send him an extra one that I have. PM me with name and address.

Static cling. It's like a decal, but not sticky and permanent. It goes on the inside of the glass and you can peel it off and put it wherever you want.

These were separate from the patches (I have both) but I wear both proudly.

Is this what you are looking for? It can get you in touch with a person for clings and patches.

How lucky we all are that we CAME BACK from Nam and can drive our Vettes. Can't help but think about all those who never made it home and never had the chance to live their lives and enjoy any kind of passion like we do for our cars.

God bless all those who gave all.
