Default My Wife's Smile say's it all!

Last Sunday my wife and I took the GS out for a road trip through the Pennsylvania County side....As you can see, she love's the Grand Sport!

Nice smile indeed!

The one time I let my wife drive the Vette she was too nervous to smile.

I will have to convince her to try it again.

Great pictures. My wife is quite content to ride in the passenger side. I ask her every so often if she wants to drive 'our' GS.

The only time my wife drives a Vette is when she plays with my grandsons "slot cars" ... I love her, but not enough to let her drive my Vette...

Hope you let her drive it, and not just pose behind the wheel.

If you did, that should get you a lot of brownie points to erase any small mistakes you've made lately.

No, she drives it. She's an excellent driver, and knows how to bang through the gears.

My wife says it's just a car and a noisy, rough riding one besides. She doesn't ride in it often and never drives it.

Naw... it ain't my daughter, but she's NOT my GF either... I race with her dad, and she is just a natural behind the wheel when it comes to drag racing...

I do wish I was back in my 20's though... ( probably couldn't afford the Vette though)

I'd give up my Vette and drive my old 73 Fury to be 20 again.
