Default Dirty Pics

Let's see some dirty pictures of you Vettes!!! We all have nice clean pictures of our cars, now let's see some dirty ones!! I purchased my car in Ohio in November and had to drive it back to NJ (600 Miles). Here are some pics from a rest stop off the PA Turnpike. It never looked like this before, and hopefully will never again...............




........and the best one (previous owner's plates)..........


BTW - during the 600 mile 11-hour trip back, I never saw 1 other corvette on the road.

Funny, I bought mine in Ohio in December and made the same drive - I guess Ohio was having a 'vette sale

This is one thing I don't have any pics of - my car dirty. Never thought to take them when the car is not nice and clean.

Hey, good buddy! Well, we will always get caught in some nasty weather some of the time, no matter what. BTW: Rands, your beautiful Black Vert is one of the finer C5's in the CF stable. The mods that you have added since then (custom VE interior, iForged bling, etc.), make your car even more striking and stealthy, my friend!
