Vette(s): SOLD - "The Toy" - '70 Convertible
SOLD - "The Beast" - '90 ZR-1 (#682)
SOLD - "Betty" - '28 Ford Model A Tudor
Sold - "BLKBRRD" - '78 Pontiac Trans Am
"BLUBYU" - '04 Coupe

My mettle was serverely tested by a '90 ZR-1 about a year ago.  I was working numbers like crazy trying to figure a way to get it AND keep "The Toy" but just couldn't make it work without a lottery win.  Hated to pass on a low mile ZR-1 but couldn't part with "The Toy" either.  And then "BIGBRRD" came along rather unexpectantly so the driveway and garage is just as full...!!!

Congrats on the "new baby"...!!!  (That's a killer color also!)

Congratulations on the C4 .  I know you'll have a blast with it, just as you do with the C3.

Congrats and enjoy...

 

 

[QUOTE=Sarge81]I know it may not the right "race" or "creed" for most folks here but, sometimes you just have to follow your gut instincts. We bought a playmate for the '81. A C4!  [/QUOTE]

Now, just between us... when cruising in the "non C3" remember to always wave to C3s, even if you don't see them, you'd best be waving, do NOT get caught without your hand in the air.  And don't ever mention the "non C3" on this forum again (trust me on this, I speak from experience  ).

Thanks for all the kind and well wishes etc. regarding our "baby."

Delivery day is Thursday. Yeah!!!! The "Christening will be this weekend. A toast with 5W30 Mobil 1 will be appropiate I think. We will take some pics over the weekend and try an update the sig pic. Norsky, be ready for some questions about that again.

Michele say's that I have to be nice from now or I can't drive it.

The "baby" is a girl, we figured the '81 needed a little sister to keep him occupied.

And don't worry....we will keep on waving. It's like incurable disease.

Now we will have to alternate between the two cars for cruze nites.

Congratulations on the new baby. Big Vette familys are nice, but I will say quadruplets can be a hand full. Don't stop at 2!!  Mike

Wuuull....hell yeeaah!?!! Mama & I always take both out on the cruizes, & to the shows. We tell everyone it's because we can't stand each other's driving, so we have to come in two cars!

I like that. I'll have to remember that one.

Ken, we'll bring the new one down for you to "test drive"

Vette(s): Used to own a 1979 Corvette now owned by JB79

Delivery scheduled for Thursday, eh?  Must be a c-section!

Awww.... Vettes are so cute just after delivery! 

Alas, overtime they get old and wrinkled and their organs start to go bad.  Then you're always having to take her to the hospital or perform surgery yourself at home.

In the meantime you should have some great times with her!

You bringing both Vettes to C3X?
