Nice car.
A buddy has a '66 vert and riding in that is why I bought myh '09 in '11.
I rode in his (red metallic, black interior, 427, side pipes loud enough to stop jaywalkers a miles down the street, overheated at the drop of a hat, rough riding) and though I certainly didn't want a C2 as my weekender it awoke something in my that had me out carhopping the next weekend. Drove 2 C6's on Saturday and bought another on Sunday.
Part of me wants a C7, but part of me looks at my C6 and can't even remember what a C7 is.
Nice toy to tide you over.
Good luck.

The ceiling in my garage is 8' however I had a hole framed in it so the car can go up higher, not sure exactly what the max clearance is when the lift is at the top but yes I can stand up and I'm 6' 1". For storage purposes it can't go that high because of the garage door needing to pass over the top of the car, leaves just enough space for another Vette underneath but nothing taller. We are moving this summer and new house will have a 10' ceiling and lift will be in the back of a tandem garage so garage door won't be an issue.
