Default Rick Hendrick convertible

Rick Hendrick took delivery of his 2014 black stingray at Bowling Green. What red interior was it that was in that car ? It looked great, Frank

Adrenaline Red. I didn't see the car but I can't imagine it being anything less than a 3LT.

Yes, it was a loaded Adrenaline Red 3LT with Competition seats. He also got a Black coupe (Vin #001) with the same AR interior as the vert, and another coupe (Vin #002) was Red, with I believe AR interior. The interviewer said that Rick H. has over 200 Vettes in his collection.

Watch for a rerun of "The Corvette" episode of AmeriCarna on Velocity.

It wouldn't hurt your chances of getting all that if: you were owner of a large GM dealership network, had a NASCAR team that runs Chevy's (winning 6 of the last 8 titles) and was otherwise a Billionaire

I too want to see still photos of this car. It was absolutely beautiful on the show. I Googled it and not one photo of the car came up. How is that possible?

First convertible made and belongs to him. Seems the internet would be flooded with them.

Default #2 production coupe

I was on stage at Barrett Jackson - Scottsdale, 2013. The auction for the first production 2014 coupe was a charity benefit which Hendrick won, but on the AmeriCarna show he received both #1 and #2. Was there another auction somewhere for the #2 coupe?

Nope, I don't think it was another auction. I think I read somewhere that GM/Chevy decided to give him #2 as a bonus to buying #1.

Kind of like a "Thank You" for all the money he spends on GM charity cars.
