How many corvettes have you owned at once?
Just curious on how many Corvettes you have had at once? I was told having 3 was too many.....I think one for each day of the week is appropriate.

7 days of the week... 7 generations of corvette... Coincidence??? I don't think so.
Then there's the 24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case thing... But please don't mix... 24 beers and 7 vettes sound like a bad combo.

5 presently. Never had more than that at once and may thin the fleet at some point. They are fun and they look great stuffed in the garage but there is always something to fix

I've had 6 Corvettes at one time, 3 70's, 1 '71, and 2 '72's. I could almost drive a different car every day of the week. Not very practical, but it sure impressed a lot of people back then.

I need two more!
I currently have 6 with one more on the way.
2010 GS Vert
2007 Vert
2000FRC
1993 Ruby Vert
1972 Cpe/350
1972 Cpe/454 (on the way)
1965 Vert
I'll be selling the '07 and 72 Cpe /350 to thin the herd some. My wife has a hard time understanding the "need" for one of each generation.
After that I'll be looking for a C1.

I had 3- 69, 74, 77. The 69 is the primary that I'll keep, bought the 74 for the wife as a restoration project and was working on it, a 77 came up on too good of a deal to pass up, a guy made me an offer on the 74 that was too good to pass, and then got an offer on the 77- it went away too. Had all that in the garage, plus a 1924 Ford, the Harley and the wife's DD. My poor little pickup has to set outside. Not too bad for a basement garage- one side is 52' long.

I had 2 at onetime. A 04 and a 77, then sold the 94 and bought a 99. The 77 got stolen and then I sold the 99 for an 80. Right now I have an 80 and a 67 GTO.

Only time I've had 2 at a time was when I bought my current 75 Vert and still had my 80. It was a few months between when I bought the 75 and sold the 80 to a friend in Brazil where it found a new life and new paint.
80 in it's new home and new paint.
