Default My driveway is now even more RED ! (NEW BABY)

Haven't finished the Can-Am yet ----- but I found a '73 all original big-block (all option) vette I couldn't resist! Do I have too much RED in my driveway?
'79 Can-Am : chili pepper red
'73 vette : bright red metallic
'52 Allstate : red
'98 Mustang convertible : rio red (girlfriends car)
"74 Chevy van : red
'69 Camaro : Hugger Orange (not red)
1400 Intruder is black metallic (and definitely not red)

Thats alot of red, but you know what they say, 'You can never have too much of a good thing.' I can't believe you let the girlfriend keep the mustang w/ the vettes. :lol: Ah, I guess its better off that way, wouldnt want a Ford lover driving the vettes anyway. You can also take pleasure in beating the mustang anytime you want, well, sorta. Question, what's this '52 Allstate? Dont think I ever heard of it. Congrats on the new buy!

Appears you now have a toy for each day of the week. Theoretically.... lets say a 150MPH hurricane is hitting right where you are. Which one gets beaten up to go get pizza?(Dominos doesn't deliver in those circumstances... I tried it in a 1980's hurricance hitting the New Orleans area) :lolg:

I have no problem with red. I kinda like it.
I have an 88 F-150, an 03 Avalanche and a Red Hood. :D

To answer the questions posed -----YES my girlfriend does have red hair !!!
The Allstate I got a week before I got the Can-Am (in '96). Allstates are the old Henry J's that Sears bought and sold through their catalogs through the late 50's and early 60's. This one is a radical custom and in dire need of renovation (but the vette's will always come first!) If I ever get it uncovered, I'll take some pic's ! Rick :chevy
