I agree with Roma. Nothing more than the Corvette. My Grandson used my car for his grad with NO decorations and it was great.



My Grandson and his Girlfriend are on the left. (note matching colors LOL)

Back in 78, friends in the Corvette club I belonged too, decided to get married. The bride and groom rode in a limo, the best man drove his 66, I drove my 62, and the groom's 71 and the bride's 76, were borrowed by 2 other couples in the wedding party.

There were pictures taken, and I saw the proofs, but I never got copies. The marriage only lasted 13 months. It was over before they ever got around to getting finished pictures, from the photographer!

I'm glad your grandson is steady enough so that you can loan him a car like that without worrying he will roll it into a ball. My son knows it will be a LONG time before he can borrow my Corvette.
Congratulations. Looks like you all did a good job raising your boy.

You're lucky man. The woman that would one day become my ex-wife made me sell my '80 before we got married. Her excuse... "A married man doesn't drive a car like that." We're not married anymore - the moral of the story, never diss the Vette.

Anyways, you get to keep your baby after you marry you're other baby. You're miles ahead.

Thank you guys for sharing your stories!
As somebody has posted, I'm a lucky guy because my future wife likes the vette and I will for sure not sell it after the marriage!!
I'm thinking of attaching "something" at the back of the car, please share some pictures of you have!

Congrats to you Iron_dog & your lady.
This is my '74 all dressed up for my friends Dean & Sara's wedding.
As Dean is a huge fan of the late Eric Carr (Drummer with KISS),
I made the Chikara symbol (on the hood) as a tribute.
Eric had this symbol on his drum kit & Dean has a tattoo of it.
He had no idea I had done this and was almost in tears
when I arrived to chauffeur him and his lovely wife to the wedding.
These pics come from Eric Carr's website (run by Eric's sister).
Yes, the ribbon did block my view a little.
I also made up some fake license plates with Dean & Sara's name
on them and some silly ones too like SHOTGUN???, DOIN' IT and
DONE IT and HELP !!! and (of course) MARRIED (just for pictures).
Cheers,
Gav

My first wife (may she rest in peace) never gave me any static about my Corvette. She said, "A four wheeled mistress is fine, two wheels would be a problem, two legs will get you killed."
