Happy Sunday, buddy! That Jeremy guy in Lawton, OK is a hell of a guy!


This is where it all started....

Thanks for doing your part to assist the young man serving his country. That was awesome - and he'll probably remember you when he is a few years older and may be in the market for a new or used Corvette. Glad it worked out for that chap.

As for the best photos, my favorite one is probably the 1963 Z06. I never knew that there was such a thing as a Z06 way back then. First runner-up is the awesome green C3 coupe with the white back end & the wide rear tires. Honorable mention goes to the pretty blue C2 interior shot from above.

As I sit here in my den looking outside at the 2 inches (at most) of snow we got here, it is wonderful to know that my 2017 Stingray is sitting nicely inside my garage and waiting for a sunny day to go for another drive. I know some folks drive their Corvettes in the winter weather, but I am not going to be among them.

Happy Sunday to everyone!!

THANKS to those of you who helped the young serviceman! That's how it ought to be done but not too common today.

My favorite is the blue / blue 65 and the young lad trying to open the door on the midyear!

Thanks for another great week Mike!

Default Another great week and thread

Nice that “Jag” stepped up to help your man in uniform.

What chrome wheels are on that 2019 Shadow Gray ZR1 vert? They must be an option! Cost?

Your neighbor Tony of Tony’s Corvette shop is known across the country as a top flight Corvette restoration shop specializing in C1’s and C2’s. He has the only 1963 ZO6 vert. Wow! Barrett Jackson would love to get their hands on that baby!!!

Curious...... why does that ‘63 ZO6 vert have Utah license plates, when it has been with Tony in his ‘63 ZO6 collection for years now in Maryland?

My old '67 coupe with rare factory sidepipes


Owned & driven daily from 1967 to 1993, wonder where it is now?

EDIT: Been informed by 6GenVette that the pipes are most likely Hookers.

Agree! That 69 just pops. Esp with the backdrop in the pic.

2nd pick is the polo white at the Golden Gate. Someone took 2 great pics.
