Default It's Here !!

Some of you may have read my earlier posts about winning the NCM 2007 Pace Car raffle and taking delivery of the car last Monday. Well the car arrived in Fort Worth this past Friday at 10:30 AM and I met the driver at the local dealership where he unloaded it. We went driving Friday night and took some photos this week end at my favorite spot.

Love the car and we can't go anywhere where people don't comment on the color and what an awesome car it is. Highly recommend the NCM delivery process and of course the raffle !!

Chuck

No, it wasn't me but I was close to you in Richardson at the Silver Fox Retaurant at Jupiter and Geo. Bush tollway. We were in the Yukon and left the Vette back in Fort Worth. There were 500 of these Indy replicas made and I know three or four dealers in DFW area that have them on the showroom floor for sale.

Hope to see you at an event in the future.

Thanks Ron, I need to update the "my Cars" file as I have sold the Black 64 but also have a 65 327/365hp/4 spd/ with A/C which is a pretty rare car since they only made 240 365 coupes with air. It is also Nassau Blue as shown below and a very nice and quick car.
