Default Celebrities and their Corvettes/and Corvette deliveries this week*Pictures ~

Over the years I have delivered plenty of Corvettes so after being off a week it's like riding a bike...you just get on and go.
..and a web article that came out on me this past Friday...Check out the article - Here’s the link
http://www.corvetted.com/furman-offe...or-excitement/


~Barry C from Columbia, MD brought his son with him to pick up his loaded 2016 Z06 in Shark Gray. Barry was referred to me by Tony of Tony's Corvette Shop right here in Gaithersburg.






~Chuck VS and his wife are from Shepherdstown, PA. Chuck had stopped in a couple years ago to talk Corvettes and then he came in to order his new 2016 Torch Red/Adrenaline Red Z51 cpe. This past Thursday they took delivery and could not have been happier with their choices.





~Mat H of Exton, PA ordered a 2016 Z06 loaded...Shark Gray with Kalahari, 3LZ pkg as you can see from the plant photo album he ordered. Mat's Z will arrive soon and we will ship it to his driveway via Plycon Trucking.





~The 2016 Black Convt on the right was delivered Wednesday eve and was the very first '16 we delivered. The new owner is in a high profile position and asked not to be pictured all though he does follow my forum delivery posts. I respected his wishes. 7spd manual and triple black. Very stealth for his very first Corvette.


~Charly B received his Z06 via Plycon Trucking in California.



~Yes in the beginning the window stickers are blank and when the complete stickers arrive we will mail them out.

~Bill P hired the same independent trucker from Long Island,NY to bring him his truck that the Corvette Customer of mine recommended...so here is my favorite traveling dog-Simon, now 14 yrs young. If you follow my posts then you recognize Simon from 4-5 other pictures when he visits.



~ Trading from a C5 Convt to a C7 Convt...Let the fun begin.



~~Now for the Celebrities and their Corvette rides...

Joe Piscopo and his C4 ZR1...


~ Bruce Springsteen and his C1 in Haddonfield, NJ. Short story is that Bruce used to keep this Corvette back in the '70's at a friend of mine's Tire Store while he was on tour. The moment he would arrive in town he would grab the Vette and go. The tire store owners were a group of brothers that lived in the town next door and were in Bruce's 1st Wedding.



~Arnold and his C3


~Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys and his 66.


~Bruce Springsteen and his 64.


~The Beach Boys pushing a 63 SW


~Charlton Heston and his C4 ZR1


~Eddie Murphy at Malcolm Konner Chevrolet. One day he came in and bought 10 Corvettes for he and his entourage.


~Elvis


~Farrah Fawcett and her special C3


~Jimi Hendrix and his C3


~Michael Jordan and his C4



~Sammy Davis Jr and his C4


~The King of Cool-Steve McQueen and his 66 vette.


~Paul McCartney and his C5 that he keeps in California.


~William Shatner and his C2



~The first C4 Convt's being built.


~Have a great Sunday everyone!

Good work Mike.

Cannot go wrong with TR but I gotta say that Shark Gray/Kalahari looks sharp too. Well any color looks prime on a C7 for that matter.

Celeb pic show was cool. Paul really enjoys his. So did Bruce. Elvis never got around to owning a Vette.

Thanks again Mike. Some day soon. Also, that pic of Farrah in her C3 brings back those good memories of that great poster of her that all of us young guys had hanging in our room.

I was there when Eddie Murphy bought the 10 Corvettes and Joe Piscopo bought 5. I have sold some celebrities like Jason Verlander etc but I never really took pictures of them.

That does seem to be the case, doesn't it? Thanks for the pics, Mike.
