Default Will he adopt me?

Came across this and figured I'd share after I stopped drooling.

"his website is an online photo gallery and description of the cars in Kevin Suydam's extensive collection near Seattle, Washington. This collection consists of over 35 extremely rare Corvettes and other American high performance muscle cars."

The link is the corvette section, but do check out the rest.

I've seen that site a number of times. I use to have it bookmarked. Removed the boomark because I couldn't take it anymore. :cry

I hope he drives each and every one at least once a year. Would be a shame for someone to hog all those awesome cars and not actually drive em. Only wich I could afford a small collection for my own. :cry

That most certainly is a nice collection. I plan on having one of my own but definately not to that degree. I want to at least be able to turn them on and not get scared that something might get wear and tear on it. I want to be able to take them on the street and see everyones' heads turn. Great feeling. Well I guess a '78 at 17 years old is a good start.

It was the 67 L88, 68 L88, and 69 L88 that got me. Then add a 71 and 72 LT-1, ZR-1s
