�Build Your Own� Raffle Winner Drawn

The winner of the Build Your Own Coupe or Convertible raffle drawing that took place last Friday, May 4 is Paul Borchardt from Amarillo, TX. 

Paul�s last Corvette was a 1979 model that he sold about 4 years ago.  He drove Corvettes for several years after he returned from Vietnam in 1967, but the �79 was the newest he ever had. He has never been to the Museum, but is dying to come now. He said he has lots of Corvette friends, and he hasn�t been able to participate in Corvette activities with them much in the last few years.  But that will soon change when he comes to take delivery of his new Corvette. Thanks again to our raffle supporters � you could be the next winner! View our past raffle winners at: http://www.corvettemuseum.com/raffle_winners/index.shtml
