Getting a new toy.
Figured the GS needed a playmate. Should be here Friday. Here is a pic of her getting loaded on the trailer this morning in Michigan. Notice the Florida tags, I will be driving her right when she comes off the trailer.

Great Mid year. Enjoy the new ride.
Still want to convince the Mrs. that a Midyear would look great sitting next to our FRC.

Great looking car. I keep looking for one too, but the wife thinks 2 Corvettes is enough and she doesn't want to part with Ruby.

Well, I didnt have to look too far. It was my fathers car. Him and I rebuilt the motor on it about 20 years ago when I was 10. That is when I got corvette fever. He then had it completly restored and honestly hasnt driven it too much since. His health has kept him from doing that. There is a ton of sentimental value with the car so he is giving it to me knowing that I will take good care of it and it will be driven and enjoyed all year around. It is a 66 vert, big block 427/425, 4 speed, sidepipes, and knock off wheels. I will post more pics later this week when it gets to the house.
