Default wife-ideal situation

After seeing the topic of "how many wives don't like your vette", I have an ideal situation. She doesn't like to ride in the vette, has driven it maybe 2-3 times, but doesn't want me to get rid of it. She thinks its a neat looking car. Got an automatic because of her and she doesn't like to rid eand drive in it-now what does this mean? Means I can go get a 4 speed and not ever have to worry about the wife wanting to drive the car! :D ;) :cheers:

My wife likes corvettes, she even had her own for several years, She drives my 69BB 4spd from time to time if she HAS to, only because it is a 4 spd. WE are going to Eckler's as soon as she gets ready. :blueangel: :cool:

My wifes not a car person. If it's got 4 doors and a steering wheel she'll drive it..... yes I said 4 doors! theres something mixed up in her head:crazy:

Now that the vette is down for a rebuild, she is kind of happy because we are not spending money on Gas or insurance and I am around all of the time. What she doen't realize is is that I am going to start pouring as much money and time into the vette in the next little while that she'll probably be begging me to get it back on the road so we can save money.
