Agree!! Take it. I’m always amazed at the attention unrestored cars and ones on flatbeds get. I’m usually one of the people looking at them!!

Take it!!

Default We loaded last night.



i have had a hard time sleeping as I am excited to get it to C and C. This year I have taken an odd assortment of cars to show and this one will be right up there with the Dodge Demon my buddy loaned me.

Glad you were there. You were 20% of the C2's represented! Looks like lots of folks were interested too!

It was great seeing you there, sorry I could not spend more time with you. I wanted to hear about the 64 Body being reunited last week with the beautiful frame. Wish I could have been there.

It was the right thing to bring the 64. Lots of good comments and encouragement. Many stories from people about the Vette in their lives. Had some unexpected people that actually had one hiding in their garage. Most impressive was the 67 Coupe that will be his son's one day. His son was there and as his proud Dad said, he can actually drive it like it should be driven. (Son was a commissioned officer after college and is now a Secret Service Driving Instructor based in Maryland.)

Glad you ended up taking it. As you found out, folks just love to share stories, no matte how your car looks; in progress, or finished, its all good.

Sounds like you had a good time and everyone enjoyed the car. Good choice.

You still have an opportunity. A——had concerns and didn’t go thru with it. T—- and I have him back on board. Will be there early (8ish) Monday to set it. It’s all there already. No apologies about time. I make the rounds, then unless someone grabs me, I’m done. Did come back to better meet your brother, but he was tied up as well. Super neat car he brought.
