Default Congratulations GB Vette

Hope this ain't a dupe but we just got our copy of Corvette Enthusiast Magazine and found on Pages 58-61 one of the nicest articles on one of the nicest rides owned by one of the nicest guys this Forum has ever seen. Congrats Gary!!

Congratulations Young Man!! I was allowed out of the polishing booth (I'm doing stuff for her car) long enough to come up here and congratulate you my friend. Well deserved and to be truthful, I really wonder why it took the magazines so long to see what you had done with this car. I suspect this will not be the last photo spread on this "Bodacious Ride"!! I think I'll have a cold one and toast to your success.

Hey fella, we think it is only fair to warn you that we know from personal experience that if your car is in a magazine, it is the editors responsibilty to make sure that your copy is the last to be mailed out! Congrats again!!
