My First Corvette

A person's first Corvette is one of those GIGANTIC moments in many of our lives that is never forgotten. I remember the first sight of it; the first time I sat in it and drove it.  I remember many other firsts in the Marina Blue 1967 Convertible. It was my first Corvette; it was the motivator to start the Mid America Corvette Corvette Club here in Effingham.  My first NCCC event Corvette.  The Corvette that I owned when I joined NCRS in 1975. 

Without owning this Corvette, I would never have started Mid America Motorworks!  That car was my first shipping and receiving dock! 

Over the 35 years I have operated Mid America Motorworks and as I have bought, sold and collected over 300 Corvettes in my lifetime, I get one common question.  What year is your favorite Corvette?  Well, check out the picture below.  My First, My Favorite and the "prettiest" Corvette ever made!

    I love your choice of vett, its real sharp.I own a 1979 and I am restoring it all of 2010. My concern is the company do not publish a lot of replacement parts in the magazine. I feel I will be limited in the restoration of my dream car. If possible can you check out why the "79" get limited parts replacement and wheels selection.

    Thanks A Million!
