Glad it wasn't the Vette. :shots:

Oh, the headline possibilities.....

[Uncle Meat]

you have to love the quality of journalist reporting today. :Jeff '79:Yeah when I initially posted that this morning the story was only 46 minutes old. Seems that today's internet journalists are more interested in being first than being accurate with their stories.

When I checked FB this morning, I saw plenty of pictures of that dealer with no information given. I was wondering why that picture was being passed around.

Still curious about the C7's paint. Is that the blue chrome wrap on that, like the green one that was around here a few days ago? :bigears:

Amazing look on that car. :thumbs::yesnod:
