The 35th anniversary Corvette

Years ago I was fortunate to take ownership, the year it was custom made, of a 35th anniversary Corvette.

Having been a "car nut" for most of my life I appreciate fine workmanship, craft, quality materials, and...style.

This Corvette had a brilliant white exterior. White leather interior. Two tops - one white and the other tinted. And custom made, never before seen, white wheels.

Though getting into, and out of, a Corvette can be a challenge I loved this car. Being six foot one, and for some strange reason at my last doctor appointment I came in at six foot two, it was trying at times to enter the vehicle once there it was...exhilarating.

For some reason(s) I found myself remembering specifics about this car as well as memories associated with the time of my life during that period. Why I thought of it now is puzzling but it prompted me to do a google search and the images, and videos, of this car reinstilled my belief that this car was beautiful.
