No other choice unless I want to sleep in the garage too! The Wife’s 2K Merc Sable wagon is stabled next to my Z06. My poor little daily driver 07’ Ranger sleeps outside in the elements.

My preference is to "buddy up" the Vette with 6 ft on each side to avoid door dings. My '06 GMC Z71 sits outside.

Default My C5's buddy

My Nassau blue vert sits side by side with my 1960's style twin engine dragster recreation. Two 454's on E85 and built the whole thing myself from scratch. It may be the largest waste of money, but I just wanted to see if I could do it..,......and of course it is also painted Nassau blue.

The other car is my wife's car, a Honda Civic. However, when I build our 3rd Garage I want a classic car. Another Corvette (69'-73') or another kind of classic chevy muscle!

Unfortunately, I sold the Camaro Iroc and the 454 SS pickup to pay for the Vette.
