On July 26th last year, I took possession of my '70 at the Dulles Airport Marriott and drove it home to Pensacola. It's been a great year.

Very nice car indeed. Nice year the 1970 is. Best date of the year to get a vette as well. 7-26-59 is a great date for me as well. That means I'm fifty today.
One more thing I noticed in your picture is the 8647 address. My address is 647. Pretty weird things happen on 7-26-09. LOL
Congratulations.
