Today marks 36 yrs for me selling Corvettes: Have Enjoyed every moment*
36 years ago today I started selling Corvettes...any Anniversary of that length especially since it involves the new Corvette Stingray which has been such a huge success for Chevrolet and Corvettes 7th Generation is something to look back on fondly. To think that I started during the middle of the 3rd Generation either states that I have tons of Corvette experience or that I am a Dinosaur. Any way you look at it... it's a long time to work at something you love. 3,200+ Corvettes sold later I am still going along and will turn 54 in a few months. Over the many years I have assisted many Corvette ethusiasts whether they purchased from me or not. The experience I try to provide is what is most important to me...does every one understand that? No and that's ok. I also have owned 14 Corvette's myself over the yrs and that allows me insight to provide first hand knowledge along with my contacts to assist when I am seeking an answer. I wouldn't trade my time selling Corvettes for any other job

Big congrats to you, my friend. Your passion not only for Corvettes themselves but also for all that you do around the cars and for the people who own them comes out strong and clear. You are truly one of the brand's great ambassadors. I hope that your second 36 years are as great as the first and hope to see you in Bowling Green again in April.

Congrats Mike!
There's a reason you've been so successful all these years.
You're really good at what you do.
