Default I just pulled the trigger on a crystal red convert with Kerbeck Chevy.

3LT, Z51, Kalahari interior, magnetic ride selection, performance exhaust. It's in transit to Kerbeck. I'm shipping it to LA. I didn't want to wait on the Z51 factory constraint. I want it now!

Some of you posted on my buying out of state thread:

I've seen that color up close and it's beautiful.

Congrats on taking charge and making something happen, rather than those that just want to lament about their situation....

Los Angeles. More specifically, La Crescenta. I used to do a lot of work in Louisiana when I was with Jacobs Engineering out of their Baton Rouge office.

I couldn't agree with Glen more. You will be getting the call from Kerbeck that your new C7 has arrived at their dealship within 10-14 days, maybe less. Get your financing & transporter lined up, because, things will be happening very fast now.

7 days. But, the first Polar Vortex hit the East Coast after my C7 arrived at Kerbeck. Transport driver couldn't get to Kerbeck's dealership for 3 days. PS. Tell the transport driver you hire that he will have to wait at the Kerbeck dealership about 2-3 hours on the day scheduled for pick-up while Kerbeck's experts "detail" your new C7 for shipment. Bet you are one excited member at this time. Just wait until she arrives at your home, and, the transport driver fires her up for the first time inside the transport van. My heart skipped several beats I can tell you. It will be 6 weeks tomorrow since my new C7 arrived, and, I STILL can't seem to get the smile off my face.

You're getting me very excited. Last night my wife said "Are you telling me a transporter will show up at our house and unload the Corvette in the street. That's going to be a Facebook moment!"

1. I STILL have the voice message from Kerbeck saying"...This is Sam Kelley from Kerbeck. I've got good news, call me" on our phone answering machine;

2. The day before your C7 is expected, the driver will call you. You will NOT be sleeping much, if at all, that nite;

3. We live in a gated development on a golf and country club. When the transport driver pulled up in our neighborhood, we had 20-30 neighbors standing around watching our C7 come off the transporter. Neighbors were making videos, as were the wife and I for our grown children who couldn't witness the delivery, but, wanted to share the moment with us.

In summary Raptor, your wife's comment was right on the money. What a great experience you are both in for.
