Thank you Mike for a year of wonderfully fun Sunday delivery threads. What a great Corvettes sales year you have had!
Here’s to a superb 2019 for you and all Corvetteland.

There were so many pictures this week that again were exciting to look at. Beautiful Corvettes of every age, and I had never heard of the “Corvettes” band before. Thank you.

Great job Mike! I love looking through the vintage pics that you post, they take you back to a time when a Corvette was bought & driven

have a safe and Happy New Year..

Thanks Mike. I would love to take a drive, but I'm barely able to walk, recent hip replacement going bad and herniated disk in back at the same time. So I just dream about the C7 and have fond memories of my C5 Z06s. Your weekly post are therapy, keep up the good work.

Thanks Mike. My favorite pic this week is for strictly personal reasons as this is the dealership where I ordered my first Corvette 21 years ago on August 15, 1997. It was a Torch Red C5 coupe, fairly loaded, M6, dual roof package, etc. Great Christmas present when it was delivered on December 19, 1997.




Brand new 1998 C5 coupe next to 1996 "Mystic" Cobra in our messy garage.

Colors varied. I did a list in a post a while back. I will have to re create it.

Good evening, Mr. Furman and best wishes to you for a prosperous 2019!!

My two favorites are the bright orange C3 and the rust-colored C1 with the driving lights in the grille. Runner-up has to be the bright green C2.

I always felt that this was a missed opportunity, somehow.
Turbo upgrade, unique styling, and the Duntov connection...
