It will take me a week or two to get insurance, TT&L taken care of...Larry left off the fact that I injured my lower back Friday AM, the day before the shark arrived...I was unsure if I could even get IN the 'vette....it was possible that Larry was gonna have to drive it home for me!!! (had him leave his sweet C5 in my garage, just to make sure he actually brought it to my house, just in case!!!)

Anyway, it turns out that I was able to climb into the beast, so I drove it home with Larry in close pursuit...no tags, no insurance, etc...

Looks good in the garage with the Acura and Supra as wingmen....will get it out to a show or meet in a month or so....gotta get my back upright and take care of those few legal items I mentioned...

GREAT Pics and hot looking Hot Rods!

I am fortunate enough to own both a 1975 numbers matching convertible and a 2003 convertible ---
BUT for my C5, I ripped the body off and replaced it with a 1962 body ---- now modern ride with retro look

See my profile for pictures of my toys

CAN"T WAIT FOR SPRING !!!!

I'm a little confused. Do you mean how much did the transport cost? If so, I believe he paid $675 for the transport from MD to Austin TX.

Wow...these pix bring back memories. Back in 1980, I owned a white '69 vette coupe. In 1982, I bought a new '82 Supra and now I have a triple black '04 vert.

Nice set of Vettes there (okay, some of the non-vettes are okay too - I'm a car guy at heart). My friend just got a '75 Vette with a non-original 454. We have been working on it some to bring it back to life.

Great looking pair of vettes. You just have to love a chrome bumper vette. I hope you both have a lot of fun with the toys.

Great looking C3.

I think Mikey needs a set of wheels, maybe TTIIs.
