Default Museum delivery

Just ordered a Z06 for museum delivery. What are some suggestions for the dash plaque (24 character limit)?

Make sure whatever you settle on is something that you will be happy to look at every day. I just put my name. What more would you want?

You could go ahead and put "Carol & Michael Schuyler" on it. It's a perfect fit. It's what I have on mine.

I didn't want my name on it because that would be a negative at resale time and I didn't want to bother with getting a standard plaque to replace it. So, I went with some generic like "Z51 Stingray".

How about Z06 Corvette, 2017 Z06 Corvette, yourcolor Z06 Corvette, etc.

Just picked up my Z06 convertible yesterday and got back home to Texas today. First off, if you don't like it after you've had it, it pops off and can be replaced with another one from the Museum. But.....mine just has Name (if you're married, I'd recommend you add your wife's name...I didn't and now suffering) the VIN number or date it was born or the day you picked it up from Museum.

Enjoy, they are great cars.

How about: "DASH PLAQUE" or "YOUR NAME HERE"

Too funny Michael.

OP, I was going to suggest using your names. That's kinda cool when you're showing the car to friends. And when/if you decide to sell the plain old ones are cheap enough, and you can keep the original.

Or your forum name, Bad Hobbit's Z06 or Bad Habit Z06?
