All right how many of you have corvette stuff in your office or cube?
Here is some pics if my office. (Proves im having a slow day at work) The corvette stuff helps to break up all the truck pictures around the building. Thats what happens when you work at the Mack Trucks World Headquaters.

I took an existing model and repainted it using a spray can of the correct paint for my car. Pep Boys sells the exact GM color in spray cans.

[GEEK=Me]Man, I was thinking the same thing. I have like twenty Maisto C4s in just about every color they make, and I never saw that one. I was ready to spend the rest of my day searching....

Nice to see others "rolling their own"!

I made a CE coupe out of a GS. It turned out pretty well.[/GEEK]

I have a die cast model in the correct color, a metal sign, my old timing cover, and timing gear/chain set hanging on the wall. Oh yeah there's intake gaskets, throttle body gaskets, intake bolts, and numerous magazines and catalogs.

I have 3 diecast Corvettes in my office ('69, '03, '05). I have a Corvette calendar, a Big Bend Open Road Race poster with Corvette on it, and two framed pictures of me driving in the Big Bend Open Road Race (one in my friend's '00 C5 and one in my '03 C5).

I don't have any pictures of my office, though.

Before I retired, I used to have two displays in my cubicle. NASCAR and Corvettes. Since I worked for the No Such Agency, there wern't any camera's allowed anywhere near the place so it's just my fond memories.

14 Model Cars spanning every generation on my desk....

Metal Corvette Sign hanging above my desk...

and my shop manuals on my sideboard....

Just got a "new" poster showing every year through '87 that I'll bring in as soon as i get it framed.

there would be more but my partner and our assistant are both women and not quite on the same decorating page as I am.

I've got a poster sized picture of the Corvette Team Cars signed by Ron Fellows and the other drivers. And a picture of my car on the track at Road America. That's all I need.
