I knew there was a genetic reason for my Corvette sickness and the 4 vettes in the garage....... And a perfect reason to blame all those repair bills so my wife detests me less.

Thats cool to have a relative inducted like that. Just to have someone in the family that involved with the making of the Corvette is cool.

That's awesome! Pick his brain about those days! Not many people get a first person account of such an historic time in our automotive history.

I see you live in Bieber's hometown.. I live at corner of 81 and Petty just north of Strathroy. EVERY USA visitor to Stratford Festial turns at my corner. Stop in for a coffee someday when you have the vette out!
