Good Day...went sour
Well it was a mildly warm day for northern Ohio, so I decided to ask dad if we could take the Corvette in to town as I had an appointment at the chiropractor.
Well, we saw a C1, C3, and a C4 and they all waved. Which was very
.
On to the bad part, while sitting down and eating I happened to look out the window and just under the nose I saw a nice scrape. I would take a photo, but it depresses me.
I guess that is part of driving these cars, and the miles and smiles are worth more, but it will have to be fixed someday.
All well, at least my dad and I got to go out and cruise.

Hey, I understand....
I was under my car recently and saw a couple of horrible scrapes beyond the paint layer. However, nobody can see them unless they lay down in front of my car....so, I'm not terribly concerned, but will touch them up the best I can.

If you drive it, the car will get some minor abrasions on it. Just enjoy your time behind the wheel - the bumps and bruises to the car can always be fixed.
