Father/Son take Museum delivery of their new Stingrays! pics of both
 
Dave called me back in January and asked about Museum delivery of two Stingrays...he said he lives in Minnesota and his Father (former Corvette race car driver) Carl who lives in Tenn wanted to fulfill a dream of taking delivery together at the Corvette Museum. I felt this idea was so cool I just had to make it happen one way or another. Both Stingrays were ordered together and Lori at the Museum was great about getting it done! This past week as you can see by the pictures their dream became reality. The whole experience came off perfect.

Well I could not top this great event but my son picked my car up for me ofcourse after I paid for it.We will be back from Germany this week to get it.

First of all I want to thank Mike for helping to make this happen. For anyone looking for Corvette I would highly recommend working with him. His strong ethics and commitment to the customer is second to none. Also I want to thank Lori and Shane for helping to make it a reality. For those of you who have not had the experience of Museum Delivery, you are missing out on something special. Its is well worth the cost and who doesn't like being treated like royalty for a day. Lastly, I want to thank my father for all he has done for me over the years and continues to do. Thanks dad!

The new Stingray is UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!!!!

Dave - Well done to both you and your father. That's one hell of a special day!

Mike McGinnis 10-27-2013 09:45 AM

I would have loved to do something this special with my father, congrats guys!

grady 10-27-2013 10:04 AM

What a great bonding story...now for a friendly race...

vette4lyn 10-27-2013 10:15 AM

Very rare delivery story here.

About as rare as the Billy "Building my own engine for my soon to be Callaway conversion and Museum delivery" C6 story a few months ago.

Interesting that your Dad was not a car guy, Mike.

I have to say that Criswell Lime Rock Green C7 poster is a real stunner. An eye catcher, to be sure. The reflection in the door panel was a very clever idea.

All done in Mike's spare time, of course...... while he is working on his days off!!!

HogwildC7 10-27-2013 11:14 AM

nice i hope one day one of my sons and myself can do it. maybe on the c8 model.

Fast Carl 10-27-2013 11:15 AM

I'm the other part of the story, and I also thank Mike for all he did to make it happen . I have two wonderful sons, that make me very proud to be their father. They have both accomplished much, and should be very proud of what they have done. To answer the other question, David's vin is 2079, and mine is 2217.
Proud Father
