Default Vette Magazine pic??

I got a call from a buddy today telling me that my C5 Vert is in this months Vette Mag!
I can't find the magazine at the news stand in my area so I can't confirm. He is a bit of a jokester so I'm not sure if he is pulling my leg or not. I don't recall submitting to Vette so I'm a little??????

Has anyone seen Junes issue yet?
Anyone confirm?
Should be called "Dads last gift"

I will search some other news stands when I go out of town later this week!
Any help will be great in the mean time

I got mine last week. It's actually the June issue. If you can't find one or just want an extra copy, i'd be glad to give you mine. Just PM me your address and i'll send it to you.

Thanks. I'm going out of town this morning and while I'm gone I will look in some of the major book stores that should carry the mag. If it's not there I will PM you.
Appreciate the offer

Congrats on your coverage in the magazine!!!

You can also get additional copies of that issue from the publisher as well. Family members were always asking to keep the copy I was showing them....
