Default Anybody know this guy???

My wife and I went to Galveston tonight for dinner along the seawall. We pulled into the restaurant and saw a 50th anniversary convertible. It had New Jersey plates on it that said "03 Vette". We talked to the guy for a few minutes. He was on a trip where he had already left New Jersey and driven to Seattle, and was on his way back across the country. I asked if he was going to get a C6, and he said probably not this year, but he was in Bowling Green for the bash in April when the C6 was unveiled.

Just wondering if he is a forum regular - I didn't think to ask.

His name is Richard, and he does get on the forum from time to time. He is a member of my local Corvette club, just outside Philadelphia.

He has family in Seattle but lives in NJ and a few weeks ago he headed out on his road trip across the USA in his 50th Anniv. Vette, pretty cool trip.

I will let him know that I saw this post when he gets home.

Thanks a lot. I was not even in my Corvette (I was in my Silver Acura TL). I did tell him I had a Corvette Convertible, but non of the details. He seemed to be enjoying his trip. Sounded pretty cool.

Thanks again
