Re: Sold My Vette --- Sad Day
Sometimes you just hit the ceiling w/ some projects. Like you said time to move on. The next one will wake you up again. That is an outstanding driver! So happens that is my dream driver, color and all. I have an LS1 and have been looking for a body/project that isn't too bad but man no deals! Thanks for the pictures of the driver very nice! Good luck w/ the next project. Jim

Don't be sad, George. Black Magic is a unique car to be sure, but you will find another. Whatever it is you need to bring it to the Fest in September.

Re: Sold My Vette --- Sad Day
Always sad to see a car go... but usually replaced by another. Have fun with your 65 George, she sure is a beauty.

If I had the 65 I don't think I would miss the 99. The 65 is a beauty!

I'll never forget that vette and that day I ran next to it at Beech Bend at the Z06 fest. It was one powerful vette for sure.

Yeah, Leslie ... did you notice that Norm picked up on that real quickly ... he has a "nose" for such things ...
Thanks for sharing, George ... closing one chapter, opening another - here's to a long and healthy life to write it!
