The wait is a killer :smash:
If they jack you around very much longer give the vette net a call. They can have it drop shipped right in your driveway or a local dealer. They can find most vettes in 24hrs new or used.
Best of luck on your 02

Hi, Ray, nice to have you here.

I agree! You need to buy another toy; get yourself a nice 68-72, preferably a big block or LT-1, and then you'll be able to turn ALL the heads...young, old, sensual, creative, passionate, nostalgic, rich, poor, pensive, adventurous, performance-oriented, whatever.

As soon as my Social Security kicks in, I am going to use it buy myself a C5; then I will have the spectrum covered too. :eek: :eek: :D :D

Yo Donaldo,
Heck, I sure drive mine... and when I get the Urban Legend up and running, I'll drive that too! I could picture swapping my 67 BB for a restored Shark if the deal was right though... One of each is the best way to go.
This past weekend I was toolin' through a nearby small town - top down - and ran across an American Car Show (bout 60 cars..). Stopped and yakked a while and had 'em three deep around the '67. This Sunday is Super Corvette Sunday. It is the biggest Corvette event in Europe. Last year it was raining pushrods and they STILL had over 400 Corvettes. The weather report is looking good and maybe we can double that....Photos will follow.

Bill
