Default From Lime Rock to Long Beach Z06 delivery pics and more 12-19-15 ****

Most people have this feeling that Corvette sales slow down in the Winter...well that's not entirely true. This past week the following Corvette customers are taking delivery via Courtesy delivery or enclosed trailer: Robert in Alamo, CA, Mike in Boca Raton, FL, Dallas W in Moreno Valley, CA, William M from Santa Clara, CA, Bob H from Ames, Iowa and Larry S from Aspen, Colorado...and that didn't include Scott from Bolingbrook, IL who flew in Monday and drove home in a new 2016 Volt or the Washington Nationals Baseball Club as they took delivery from me of a new ProMaster Van and Sam from Olney, MD getting a new Jeep Grand Cherokee... Below are the folks that took delivery at Criswell...and some pics of the courtesy deliveries. You can see video's of my deliveries on my Facebook page CorvetteFurman.

~Charles M of Temple, PA bought a 2014 Limerock Green Convt from me two years ago...last week he took a ride down to visit his Grandkids and decided to have his son take him to view our inventory. We talked for half an hour and he spoke of a certain Long Beach Red with Dark Gray Z06 that kept on catching his eye. His son Tim (my Golfing friend) called the next day to get numbers....and yesterday we made the switch. Like any one else... Charles really liked the roar of the Z06 engine.
-Last time at delivery for the 2014
















*Charles Grand son Timmy wants to race him now...


~Peter R from Fullerton, CA special ordered his White Z06 to be drop shipped to a Chevrolet dealer near him for a Courtesy delivery. This past week he drove the Z home.



Robert B of Rescue, CA did a Courtesy delivery as well with his Yellow Z06 Convt Factory order.


~Several other delivery pics from this week show off the lines of the Stingray.










~Mark F from Texas bought his C7 from me and was out for a ride last week and ran in to some other C7's. Mark sent this Patriotic shot to me and I thought I would share.


~Like last week...here is a throwback picture of me at Konner Auto in 1985....and then a slew of other barn finds, ads etc...





...my kids a long time ago on my 1988...


and someone else's kids even older...



~we used to call this a Day 2 car...once you took it home...the 2nd day would be MOD day.



crash of a Z06...drive safely.








corvette under there somewhere...C1















~Corvette truckloads come several times per week....they all end up delivered...it's just a matter of to which State?






*and when I retire I will build myself a special Golf Cart like this...


Have a great Sunday everyone...and don't forget the Corvette wave!

I always enjoy this post each week. New Vettes with happy owners and pictures of old Vettes back in the day.

For some reason the picture of the Torch Red Z06 with the silver painted wheel catches my eye.

I agree! I don't "need" a Z06, but a Long Beach Red Z06 sure looks tempting.
