Last July my wife went to an artist to have her do a drawing of my car. It was for my birthday, last August. It was finally done today. The first pic is the pic she worked from, it was taken in the Black Hills of South Dakota. The 2nd pic is the pen and ink drawing I wanted and the 3rd is a colored version my wife wanted.

Thanks guys!

I wanted the pen and ink because I already have some others in my office. After seeing the colored one, well, I just loved it! I don't ever plan on selling the car but if I do I will always have these drawings.

Default Very nice!

I've been in that exact spot, but I was wishing I had my car instead of dang work truck. Might get back there in the Vert some day.

It doesn't get much better than the Needles Highway for a top down trip in a Vette.
