Awesome!!! Fantastic looking car. I bet you get even more compliments in Denmark than we get about our C3's here in the States! Hope you got to drive it today to celebrate the birthday.

Yes a Corvette is not around every street corner here in DK.
But then again, we are a small country.
The next I will buy, will be a 1970-71 Camaro.

Thanks all, I like both my 69 Corvettes, and as I see it, then they will never be sold.
Both will go to my kids, and if I'm lucky, then they will give them to there kids, and NOT sell them :- )
