Vette(s): 71 Coupe LS5 454 Auto
Dig this...
My brother's reading the new Car Craft mag (in the bathroom, where else?) He starts taking a load for real! Screaming and hollaring I come running...
 
My Mille Miglia Red 71 LS5 is on p.84, top left hand corner. I had to blink and do a double take...
 
That's so cool! It's all down here from here! 
 
I hope this doesn't come off as bragging...
I just never thought in my wildest dreams my Vette would be put in my favorite car mag.
 
Here's proof that you don't have to have a trailer queen to be:
1) in a magazine (it's not a feature, obviously)
2) other car guys dig 30 year old paint
3) car guys respect cars that are driven
 
I've had nicer looking cars (Chevelles and Mustangs) but not one as cool (or fast) as a vette!
