I've been called obsessed but I'm really not! I just LOVE Corvettes Hubby just shakes his head and rolls his eyes. Just becuz there is Corvette everything everywhere in my house doesn't mean I'm obsessed.
Well until today... now I'm there.

I washed, waxed and detailed all my diecasts and then put their new little car covers on them




Wonder what's next
