Marc, I still have the blue 98 1LE. Its not going anywhere.

I *might* sell the '02 SS convertible and pick up a C6 Vette later though.

I'm buying the orange one for $13.5K, picking it up this evening and hauling it back on my trailer.

So, last I heard you built the 69 out of an apartment garage. If that's still the case, where the hell are you keeping all these cars?

"Daddy war bucks Whatley" got a house now, but if he ever needs to store another car I will be more then happy to take a car off his hands.

The 69 was 1/2 built at the apt and finished at the house. That color will just always remind me of them Duke boys! But it does look good with the black/chrome wheels!

Brad, I actually built about 95% of the '69 in my old apartment garage. Finished it up at the new house, where I have a 3-car garage and a 5-car driveway

Nice choice Tony! I'm sure once the word got around about that car, it would have been gone quick. Way to jump on it! Maybe you can add that one to your sig., and take the two sold ones off.
