Default My own Corvette Theme

Well I was finishing Zaino-ing the car today because I am off to school tomorrow when my next door neighbor came over to wish me luck in school. She gave me a card and then posed a question on me.

Her son is going into the 7th or 8th grade (I forget) and he has his bar mitzvah coming up and she told me that she would like to do a car theme for him. She said that her son loves the Corvette and would like to do a Corvette theme for his after party. So I ended up giving her some ideas and she asked if I would let him sit in the car so she could take some pictures of him and everything.

Zaino did the trick again and the car looks amazing. Long story short I said sure! I just thought it was pretty exciting, especially now that I have the car looking so good, that my Corvette is going to be the theme for his party. Now everyone's going to be asking whos gorgeous car that is... I hope he still gets some attention

Just thought I'd share, I thought it was pretty cool to be asked to use an asset of yours. Car is all Zaino'd up and going away while I am at school other than the occasion down to the convinient store when my dad takes it out for 10 minutes. Im going to miss the car the most!

Haha yea, I told my mom that he was allow to stand next to it, or sit in the drivers seat. No sitting in the hood or the back or on top or something like that.

He will probably just sit in the drivers seat and call it a day, but I needed some reassurance, lol.

Thanks guys! I will be away from the car at school, but active as hell on here!
