Happy birthday to your car. But sounds like a good reason to have cake and ice cream. That's what we do for our cars

Wow, spectacular looking '65. Love the blue - my son's favorite color and I can see why. Custom wheels look fantastic with the side pipes.

Happy Birthday. I Like Nowhere Man's suggestion about celebrating with cake and ice cream.

Happy 46th Birthday to your sleeping beauty... don't wake her up, you can still party together later.

I love that car! Bruce

Default Happy Birthday

That is one pretty '65. Great stance!
What's cooler is that being in St. Louis you get to celebrate in it's hometown!

Speaking of which, what's on that original Corvette factory property now?

I never really sought out that location while in St. Louis as I understand the buildings and any visual reference are long gone.
This is the best StL reference I could come up with:


As for me, I always get to have cake and ice cream on my '65's birthday -it's the same day as mine! And, although my '65 was buillt in '64, we are both '65 "model" years.
