1st Vette ordered

The wife and I have always wanted a Corvette, but 40 yrs ago, we became involved with touring motorcycles, vans, motorhomes and street rods. Today we are still involved in street rods and touring motorcycles but it's time to change our mode of traveling. I am in the process of selling one of my street rods and Jan. 28 we ordered our 1st Corvette. We will be the proud parents of a 2010 Torch Red, Grand Sport Coupe, 3LT, Auto, NAV and chrome wheels. Even though February is the shortest month of the year, it will be the longest month for me.

Hopefully the Museum will have it ready in early March. Until then, I will be learning as much as possible about our new toy while counting down the days.

Thanks to all for you comments and I look forward to hanging out on the forum.
When I take delivery of the GS, I will post a couple of photos. The museum delivery looks quite special. One of you ask for a photo of the streetrods. The 40 Ford is the one I'm selling and the 35 Ford pickup belongs to the wife. I think she would sell me before the 35 goes. LOL
I just noticed, I cannot post attachments yet........ http://www.hutchwheelproducts.com/1940ford
