Re: Drivers

I drive my '62 only on weekends - if I can't drive with the top down - why bother! In So. Cal. there are many Sat & Sun's that allow for this. Then again I also have to exercise the '65 pony (HIPO Mustang).

Re: Drivers

It feels good to know I'm not the only one in NCRS that drives the Corvette,I think many people think NCRS people dont drive them , I'm proof that a driver with 114000 miles even with accessories can get a top flight. ( too many newbee's don't think it can be done) It's not that hard in NCRS to do if you keep it nice. I was amazied my self in 05. I also look at the "Corvette forum" and they also have great guys there. I like when they post there pic's.
How about you same guys posting your pic.of your Corvette you drive, NCRS awards or not. I dont think it's even been done stateing this is a Corvette I simply enjoy and DRIVE .
My people have seen mine so here it is again.

Re: Drivers

I drive my 59 a lot. One owner from 1959 until 2004. The owner (a gal) drove the heck out of it. The 59 now has 238K miles on it, and I am adding about 3500 to 4000 a year. I drive it year round - for the winter I put the hard top on it.

I don't plan on taking it thru NCRS for a long time however. I will wait until the engine dies or the car needs to be repainted. Will do a frame on restoration at that time, and make the car right.

Here is a pic of the car and original owner in 1962:

Re: Drivers

You need a off sight provider , I use filmloop it's free , I use it to send to people over seas I correspond with to show original , accessories and NOS parts and other crazy things I like or added. This is all 55 Corvette stuff.

Re: Drivers

Dale, if what you are packing is a genuine Corvette accessory, Roy may be interested in getting one or several...perhaps one in each caliber offered.

Roy, I drive my '64 a quite a bit. Twice to CO, once to UT via Tulsa and Independence, MO (not the most direct route from Houston!) and plan to drive it to Bahston next summer. I also participate in a lot of Texas Chapter and AACA road tours. It's seen snow, rain and heat...the works.

Best regards,
Charlie

Las Vegas in the spring, Rick?

Here's my driver first time at judging (9/05) 2nd Flight:


Drive it every weekend, 1428 miles (back and forth) to Flagstaff last April.
Ran like a champ (17 mpg at 65mph (avg)) and Top Flighted.

Hoping to go for a Founders check in Las Vegas in April 2007. (a mere 1000 miles back and forth).

See you there?
