C Baker and his new SW Z motoring South
Pic of Christian with his new Speedway White/Mod Red Z06. He just picked it up from the seller in Saginaw, Michigan. I met up with him and his brother Brandon in Lansing. Check out the smile on his face!
Couple more with his brother. I am concerned that Brandon might ditch Christian in some Indiana cornfield on the way home and take the car home himself!
Here are a couple of pics from when I went to inspect it for him back in Feb just after a snow storm. Poor thing will now get to live in Texas where it will never see snow again.
This pic was taken after they had the hood open in order to jump start a dead battery.

Fine looking Z - and he has every right to be smiling.

So far it is the "ballsiest" (if that's an actual word) car I have ever driven. I went back there when the roads were clear and that baby has some oats under the hood!
I drove a 435 HP 67 vert once back in the day but could not put any power down with the skinny stock tires.
The modern Vettes handle and drive so much better.

Hey Christian - Did you make it into Missouri? Hope everything is going well and what kind of mileage are you getting?

hey all, made it into Houston this after noon and just got done washing all the bugs off. When I get some time this week I will post pics of the trip at all the different stops. I am finally excited to be able to say I drive a Corvette, I have been wanting one all my life growing up around my fathers '63 coupe!
