Default How cool is this!

A while back I sent some pics over to VBP, I saw on thier website that, they can always use pics of customers vettes that have thier products and low and behold they e-mailed me back.

"you sent me a pic of your Corvette. My graphics designer used it in an ad. It is hard to tell that it is your Corvette, but I have had two customers already ask about it. We are now going to have to feature it in a new ad I think . Do you have any more pics you could send? I have the publications that the ad is in and listed them below. I will also send you a copy of one of them. But I would really like more pics so we can use them where we can feature the whole car and get your name with it too.

Thanks again and I hope you like the ad and we can do another and I hear back from you soon.

Best Regards,
Pattie Cooke, Sales Mgr.

VERY COOL.

I'm hoping to get my 82 Vette in their ads when it is finished. Currently have their complete Performance Suspension Package, Front Spreader Bar, 4 Brake Calipers, and Wheel Spacers
