your stories, delivery threads and your passion for this car is what turned me into a "maybe" upgrade from my 08 to a definitely and which one should I get. True story, you know the background to it.

Your presence at Carlisle alone I would bet contributes to numerous new Corvette purchases by otherwise procrastinators. Anyone who Spends 2 minutes with you is getting invaluable insight.

Hopefully that continues for decades to come. Can't wait to see you deliver the 4,000th !

Thanks as always for the amount of time you take out of your personal life to put smiles on our faces every Sunday.

2 of yours at cars n coffee millstone today. Lots of vettes all gens. Quick action to capture this C2 (didn't you have that one?) passing our cars!


ps - [/i]That video you made with the YouTube guy was very entertaining. Love that C2 coupe Mike. Really is a gorgeous example. The speed alarm lol

always learn something new from you. Thanks buddy.
My C2 convt was a 1967 and that one in the pic is not a 67. The speed minder option came at a cost of $10.55 on my window sticker for my 1967 Corvette Cpe.

Thank you as always for your kind words. I can't wait until Carlisle this August. Hope to see you there.

Already reserved the room at the hotel in center of town. Added me to the book last year right before the parade. I was already # 80 something if I recall lol.

I doubt they'll be another one there like mine given how they're only 7 others but just in case... you cant miss this Criswell plate frame.

Kudos on the amazing collection of mini-cars. So many that they're on the ceiling.

Those pics of Corvettes@Carlisle sure brought back memories.
The third one shows Carlisle Staff in front of the grandstand.
Notable is the late Chip Miller addressing the crowd.

Learn more about this important co-founder of Carlisle Events...

Congrats on the recognition Mike, you deserve it!

You should write a book for those out there that don't believe that hard work and dedication pay off. Your level of passion and customer service is unprecedented.

Took me three sittings to carefully go thru the memorabilia pics. That's a lot of stuff. Great pics, too. Thanks.

thanks, and looking forward to NCM delivery June 7.

I toured the collection twice for 2 hours each time and I know I only viewed 30% of everything! It is overwhelming!

Yes, it should be interesting on which delivery/customer it will be.
Maybe I will deliver myself #4,000...or not. I enjoyed how much Richard,
Mr. 3,000 got a kick out of being that number and still to this day gets a kick out of it.
