This is a tradition which should be passed on to every Corvette owner. We should all send this to the Chevrolet dealers in your town to help keep this small part of Americana alive and well for all future Corvette owners in hopes they enjoy what we experance every day.
And so it goes...

Maybe, just maybe, this link should be posted on the C6 Forum - many of them just don't get it (the wave) , or are too impressed with themselves to wave at us "pheasants"
