Default 70th Anniversary

I see on the Chevy website Reeder Chevy has an Anniversary car in transit. 35k markup. Hopefully those of you who ordered this will start getting builds finished soon.

Either that is a price put on there to discourage calls on an already sold unit or someone is going to pay one heck of an ADM.

I thought the 70th Anniversary edition was on 100% constraint because of the red stripe tires.

It is. The earliest TPW I have seen for the 70th Anniversary cars has been August 1. So they are jumping the gun a little bit.

I had original TPW of 7/11, latest is 8/1. No word from anyone on movement. Conceiaire still says 3000 which it was on April 1! Don’t see a reference to last car you mentioned. (Photo)?
Take care

Totally agree. Nice to see Reeder is still sticking it to their customers.

I was there last fall looking at what they had mainly just to see if I could fit in one (6'4" 230 lbs)

My problem is that I live in a small town and probably looking at having them service mine when it gets here next year from Criswell unless I want to go to Greenville, SC but they are yet another price gouger as well.

Finalist 2020 C7 of the Year -- Unmodified

The only anniversary editions that are not gimmicks in my honest opinion is the 25th,50th,future 75th and 100th. all others are just to sell cars. A marriage milestones are 25 silver 50 golden and the few that actually make 75. 100 stands for a century which is a milestone in itself . Who cares about 35th,40th,60th,65th and now 70th. Sounds so tacky might as well make a 71st anniversary edition next year just to hook some buyers. LOL!

I bet the dealer will find some uneducated buyer and pawn it off as limited or somehow special beyond it being just cosmetic changes.
