How many Vettes in your family?
How many Vettes have been in your family? So far only 4 Vettes in our family.
1. My dad's 1980 L-48, white with dark blue interior.
2. My uncle Leo's 1977 L-48, dark blue with dark blue interior.
3. My uncle Joe's 1975 L-48, red with black interior.
4. My uncle Bob's 1986 L-98, red with black interior.
My uncle Leo sold his a few years ago because he got tired of the repairs (he bought one that the previous owners never took care of). But he is thinking of buying another shark.

Re: How many Vettes in your family? (76 Red)
At this time I have the only one in the family that I know of. My uncle had a brand new 74 or 75 which is the first vette I remember paying any kind of attention to. Right now I only have the 70 model convertible. More than that and I will have to have a bigger garage. That was the main reason that I got rid of my 96.

I have two, a pristine 1979 coupe,
and a decent 1984 !
I'm not sure you ever have too many, And I have a feeling there's a C-5 in my future. :cool:

1) My 1976 Corvette
2) My Uncle Dan's 1964 Corvette
3) My Uncle Dan's OTHER 1964 Corvette
4) My Uncle Dan's 1958 Corvette
5) My Uncle Ron's 1963 Split Window
I believe that's all of them :D Yes, you read that correctly my uncle Dan has THREE Corvettes! He built the 1958 from the ground up his senior year in high school. He is the "cool" uncle who will be helping me with my big block build-up....I should also point out he has a 1972 Chevelle SS454 :D
*Edit*
I thought you meant only the 'Vettes that are currently in our family. My dad had a 1969 427/435HP Tripower.
