Default Got Her Home-Thanks Rick Conti

It was around 20 degrees today when I took delivery on my Corvette. Had her delivered to my house on a rollback because there's to much salt on the road. Will put her to sleep till April.

Thanks Rick "Corvette" Conti for a smooth delivery without any issues. You are definitely the Corvette Dude!

If anybody on this forum needs a Corvette Dealer I highly recommend Rick.

Here is a stupid question. Why won't you drive your car on salted roads? There is nothing to rust. I have never stopped driving my Vetts in the winter, they salt the roads here and I have never had a problem. You have a beautiful car

Some poeple don't want the underside of their car to get wet or dirty. When the aluminum gets wet and dirty it gets a dingy look to it. I have a 03 z that's never been in the rain and it still looks brand new underneath

Gottcha, Thanks My C7 is the first aluminum frame Vette I have owned. I drove it in a snow storm in Denver last month so I will check it out underneath next time I change oil. Thanks again for the info.
