Default Found- 1994 Copper Corvette

Just to let all of my Corvette friends know that my five year search for a low mileage 94 Copper Corvette has finally ended with success. I just received delivery of a Copper/ black Coupe with 5900 miles. All those leads were appreciated but I couldn’t settle for a car with 30,000 to 60,000 miles. Now my newest family member will reside next to my 01 Magnetic Red/ Oak Convertible with 11,800 miles.

My next ambition includes actually explaining to my wife why we can’t put miles on the cars other than weekend rides and why they can’t go out in the rain. I’m also working on a reason why I must still purchase a C3 (having owned a C1, C2, two C4's, and a C5. True Corvette people have our own set of problems.

Is it your goal to have the rarest (color) of Corvette's?

Default Rarest Color

I do enjoy having cars that are different and have mostly gravitated toward rare cars, but in this case I really love both of my paint colors (and I have never said that before in over 40 years of car collecting).

Day 3, Photos added, click for enlargements:

Those two things just don't belong together (of course this is just my not so humble opinion)
