Default Nice C5 Clock from Disabled Veteran

Here is a nice looking C5 face clock I purchased on "the big bidding site."
I had been wanting a relatively lower priced replacement clock to keep in the work area of our garage. I looked at several but especially appreciated that this clock is put together by a disabled Viet Nam Veteran.
I am fairly certain he has all 8 generations available for the face.
Here is a link to the clock: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Corvette-St...YAAOSw0eNdIx8z

Thanks for the link. Cool clock and always love to support a vet. I sent him a message to see if he can make the background purple....go figure, right! Says he will be away until October 3rd (SEE EDIT) I believe. I'll let you know if he'll do it or not, I don't expect him to.




EDIT: Well that was really quick....He already responded to my question and said he CAN make a purple background for me. He won't be able to until after October 10th though. I'll post a picture when it arrives.

Can't believe you would want a purple clock, Mark!
Looking forward to seeing the Grape Ape C5 clock!
