Default Big Move...
Today is the day I sell my Corvette...
Over the last 3 years many of you have helped me with mods and advice. Thank you!
I still cant believe that its going away. SO many hours spent getting it into this shape. It has won a trophy at every Corvette show entered, way beyond my expectations.
I am purchasing a black ZR1 today so im very nervous. It will be Vette #5 for me.
I just want to say thanks to Don... who's Beautiful red ZR1 was the insperation that started this whole process. Wish it were in the cards Don...
Thank you fellow Forum members for all the help and inspiration that you're beautiful Corvettes gave me.
Here's a couple last pictures of the one selling today...

Miles?
Engine modded?

Congratulations on the ZR-1. Since you have had a black car you know all the tricks to keeping the black paint in top condition.
