Hey, we should all meet at the next Cars and Coffee. Lets set up a place to meet and we can all drive in together. That would be cool.

The guys from NTCFF had the southwest corner of the lot filled with Corvettes, they got there EARLY! I will be there for sure on the next one. I picked up the 77' on Wednesday and have spent most of the time since either in it or with it!! My wonderful Wife has turned the whole garage over to me!!! I tried leaving my SSBlazer outside under a car cover one night but got no sleep. I was up checking the drive way every hour. I'm so spooked since the theft of the Trailblazer SS last month. I will post some pictures later this week! I went crazy with the Eckler's catalog and at Corvettes of Dallas, 2 Corvette chairs, 2 visors, a leather arm rest, a set of new trim rings and a T-top briefcase . Stop me before I strike again!!!! P.S. A real cute cashier at Goody-Goody on Inwood carried out my bags just to see the Vette!! I must remind her of her Dad? Grandfather?

Saturday 11/28. I'm gonna be there early (6:30 is what I heard to get a spot in the Corvette Corner). Went to Keller's for lunch yesterday pulled out my new chairs and was served sitting next to my Wife and Car. Talked to two guys in a Lotus...You sure do have to like each other sit that close!!! They were envious of my Corvette chairs, the chairs give you an air of sophistication ! Hey Todd , I'll be in this week to order the table!!
