Default Trio of Vettes

A quick shot of my Trio. 2014 Premiere Edition C7, 2013 60th Anniversary 427 Convertible, and 1972 LT-1 Coupe.



I had all three out yesterday for a drive and thought I'd snap a quick pic. Although the experience of each is vastly different, I've got to say that all three are great cars. Getting to enjoy all three in the same day was quite a treat. Man, life is good.

I've got a similar 'good life' as I have three as well; an '84, '05, and the '14. All are Z51 optioned and are totally different experiences as you said. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to drive them all yesterday as you did; with -14 temps and a lot of snow it will be April until that may happen! Nice photo of some great cars.

Look at my avatar...06 vert, 82 collector and 66 427/425.... but then the wife decided we needed to buy more real-estate...
But not all is lost as I am patiently waiting for my Z51 vert to arrive...

Enjoy your toys in good health!

Those are great looking vettes. I'm particularly biased to the C3. Mine are C7, 76 and 75 C3s.



My 76.



My 76 with my 75 (will be going to my son this year).

I'd have to agree. the 82 Collector is a great looking C3.

Nice stables.

Awaiting a future '73... after my Z51 gets built.

Funny my future plan is almost the same. Once I have my Z51 vert in the nest I will start looking for a 1970 vert.

Something new, something old...

And then that's that! Done! (anyway that's the story I tell my wife...)
