Had the Vette out today!
After four long months I finally got her out and man did it feel good! Lots of looks & some thumbs up. On top of the world....
Thought about chasing this DB9 down, but ended up coming to my senses and just taking a pic...

Me Too!.. First ride of the year today. Finished up hoses, belts, oil an filter, bled finicky caliper, installed new points and busted out of the garage. After I returned, I had the car in the driveway and the wife comes home and wnats to go for a ride...then she wants to drive...an hour later the gas tank was empty...but we both had a blast..

Glad to hear you got out and had some fun. I took mine to Home Depot to buy a few little things this weekend. When I got there there was a brand new C6 Z06 there so I parked next to him. I really like the new C6's styling but it still dosen't compare to a Shark. I waited around my car for a few minutes to try and meet the owner of the Z06 but never showed. The next day I went back to HD and drove the Vette again. This time when I came out there was another C6 parked next to me. It wasn't a Z06 though. I always drive mine in the winter when conditions are right but it was good to get out with the top down this weekend.

Nice looking car! I can see why you get thumbs up on it. My 76 still needs the front end rebuilt, so it wasn't out this weekend, but I did take my 89 vert for a ride on Saturday and to church on Sunday.

Thanks for letting me drive your '69 Rich! Nothing like a BB! I sure would like to know who in the hell has a new Aston Martin around here though. I've never seen one of these things. He never once looked over at me.
