Default Dad’s new Z51 C8
My dad just turned 89 and treated himself to a new Vette. My wife and I met mom and dad at the dealership when he picked it up. A very Special day. 63 years of evolution between our cars.

Great looking pair of Corvettes. I would be happy with either one. Last year I thought it would be great to buy a new C8 and finally own a Corvette. I soon found it isn't so easy as I'm on three waiting lists and still have no idea if I'll get one this year.

Your Dad is 88, but his thoughts are of a 28, good for him.

Great choice of photos showing the front end and back end of those Corvettes!

Thanks for sharing a wonderful moment in your lives.

Dad has always loved Corvettes and old Chevys. This is his current Atomic Orange Z06 and his 71 4 speed Roadster that was his year ‘round daily driver for 20 years. He is NCRS member 1030 so he’s been at it awhile
