Maybe they have read most of your posts and go shopping when your online

My daily driver is a faded gray 1986 GMC short bed pickup and I love to park it by real nice cars. I have more questions if I would sell it than I do on my 64 or 99 FRC!!

I look for well cared for older cars or rice burners
I can't walk more than a 100 feet so no 1/2 mile jaunts to avoid a scratch...Ed

No doubt, I'm just curious why people want to buy that truck instead of the Vettes. :just wondering emoticon:

I always try to park one or two spaces away from anyone if I can. However, when I come back it is always the beat up van or pickup truck that is parked next to me.

I did again today:

It was gone when I came back out. Hope he took pictures too and thought having two Grand Sports parked side by side was an impromptu car show. Minus the Mustang.

parking

take my Vette to walmart, target,sears, and shopping malls. if i see another vette i try to park next to it. some times very close so no one else gets close enough to scratch
