Well, we are now a two Corvette family. My 1974 coupe has a sibling:
 
1994 Admiral Blue LT-1 coupe; 48,000 miles, automatic, black interior. Excellent condition inside and out. Unfortunately, it will continue it's hibernation until the spring. Bend, here we come!

Congrats on the new "baby" Wally!!! I also love the Admiral Blue on a C4...now, if it only had a RED interior, you'd have the only one like that!

Gotta have PICS!!!

Congrats Wally!  Will you be bringing your 74 or the new 94 to Michigan?  We will be driving our 74.  The last (only time) we met in Hot Springs, both of us were carless.  It'll be good to see you again.


I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

Here are some pictures. I did have to drive it in Minnesota slop, much to my chagrin. I am sure this car rarely, if ever, saw rain. I am not sure about the vanity plate. I have always favored U4EYA.
