Funny Story
Yesterday afternoon my 62 year old father and I took the Vette to Wal Mart. He had lost his pocket knife and wanted to get another one. He has never cared much for Vettes. After leaving Wal Mart I stopped at a stop light and two early twentyish good looking blondes in a firebird pulled up beside us. They were looking at us and smiling and waving. He waved and laughed. When we got back home and walked in the door he could not wait to tell everyone that a couple of young girls were flirting with us. I think he might like the Vette a little more now!

Come on...lets be realistic...you guys were in the middle lane of a 3-lane street and the chicks were waving at the dudes in the "Ricer" on the far lane.
No it was only 2 lanes and we were in the right and they were in the left. There was no mistaken what they were doing. Just before we got home we got the
from a guy driving a Ford Taurus.It would scare me to death for my dad to get a Vette. The last 5 years or so he has not been doing well driving.
He scares the crap out of me when I ride with him. He has had 4 heart surgeries and I think that and his age has affected him.

I noticed that the last time my Dad drove mine.
During my last trip down he wasn't feeling too good, maybe next time.

Great story. Just be careful if your Dad starts asking for the keys to the car.
