Default Two Yellow Corvettes

As a few of you know I spent the last week on the road with my wife and our Vert. We had a great time visiting Texas. Here's a couple of pictures I thought yall might like. One of our Vette on the Seawall in Galveston and the other is from a local car show I checked out today. No idea who owns the 2nd one and before you start with the Arkansas jokes I'd like for the guys from Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama to notice it is for sale and the number is on the windshield.



Yes....it is a 4 X 4

That 4x4 would make me a great daily driver in Wisconsin in the winter.

That's one fine vert you have.

That C3 would look pretty good if it wasn't converted to the 4x4 look.

Thanks for all the comments. I took that pic with an iphone. I need to get me a good camera!

Thanks Jack.....I'm real proud of my car. I love driving it but it's hard to keep it looking the way it does when you put the miles on it. This trip was rough on it. Someone opened their door into it and left a place on the fender, thankfully it buffed out. I also got a rock chip in the windshield but I've already had that taken care of.

Stunning ride!

I know what you mean. I'm still working on the road rash from my 6,500 mile trip.

Thanks!

6,500 miles almost guarantees something you aren't going to like! It's just the price we pay for enjoying our cars. I can see why some people don't get them out of the garage much. I enjoy looking at my car, but I enjoy driving it more.

Hey Ron,

How's it going? I put 1529 miles on her last week. No, it wasn't a quarter mile at a time. I'm just not as adventurous as you are. How is the track treating you?

Your car looks great. The C3-------well not so sure! It's missing the plow. This one even has the stinger hood. Probably a 427 435hp.
