It is with much regret that I must announce that Cooper Corvettes is going out of business. I have been in the Corvette business for many years. Sometimes great things need to come to an end. This is probably the most enjoyable job I have ever had. I have met a lot of nice people from all walks of life with a common interest in Corvettes. Our remaining inventory of Corvettes are available at exceptionally low prices! Make us an offer, and you could bring home a beautiful Corvette. At this point, we plan to close August 31st.



Sincerely,

Robert L. Arnold Jr.
President of Cooper Corvettes"

Yet they posted on their Facebook page that they are NOT closing. They are restructuring to service ALL vehicles in an effort to stay around. Hopefully they stay in business.

They are a great place for vette service with fair prices.

Thats good news. I was going to post about wanting to know where Tom and his son (head mechanics) were going. They do very good work. I trust them 100% with my cars.

Tom is now foreman at Koons Auto in Fredericksburg
His son left the industry.

Cooper's is still open, but at a different spot and only for sales.
I spoke w both Tom and Bob, and this was about 90 days ago.
Hope This helps. Both are nice guys.
