Yeah, but you well know, the seed is planted and the call could come anytime in the next 12 months...

Congrats Tim and Tracey on these remarkable achievements!!

Seems as though the best of the best survivor Corvettes find their way into Tim's shop for ultimate detailing.

Separates the massaged survivors from authentic and raw unrestored educational examples! Very well deserved!

One could say a chapter has drawn to a close of sorts. For the first time since I bought the 70, I brought it home. In that ride, the car crossed the 9000 mile mark. It's really nice to have it home......really nice.

This car here (as you may know) was the first that Tracey and I had gone full bore on campaigning. There was no stone unturned, in any form of judging. That all having been said, I had to reflect back a little bit. Honestly, I feel the whole experience made me a better person.

Yes, the car brought home the hardware. It's a great car. Through it all, we have seen so many quality top shelf cars, been to some places that we never would have traveled to, but most importantly.........made friendships with so many quality people. It's truly humbling. No secret, the hobby is so much more about the people.

Plenty of you have shown a car(s) so much more than Tracey and I have. Now in hindsight, I can see why.

Looking forward to seeing you guys at MCACN!

I’ve seen this car a number of times and it pushes all the buttons, not many cars can do that. There’s a reason one of the awards it has received is called Benchmark.
