20% of Corvette drivers have three hands?
Second from the left has both hands in his pockets AND is holding a coffee cup; unless he has a short friend in the background.
I knew a Corvette owner with three breasts, one in back. She wasn't much to look at but she was fun to dance with.

The fact that they are not actual jean shorts but all cutoffs is comedy gold!
I think I saw that group at the gas station on Saturday getting ready for a drive. However they all had name tags on and from what I can tell, they only had two arms each.

Don't try to deny it, if you have a Corvette, thats you.:p Maybe with golf shorts instead
I love it! I'm surprised no one has posted a photo of what FFR guys look like...

Had a 435BHP Tri-Power 1967 StingRay Coupe for 28 years. Don't think I ever met any of the guys with the shirts.
Getting ready for Spring picture.

Lol...watched a Youtube video of a Cobra club that did a Lake Michigan tour, and the majority of them really did look like that ! The Hagerty guy was part of that group. It was actually a pretty good tour, they took the auto ferry across , and drove the coast line. There was one young couple out of the entire group.
I figure the only ones that have both the time and the money are older retirees...

There is some truth in that, BUT what you don't credit is, over a 150 yrs worth of knowledge, hands on experience and problem solving. Business owner, engineering and real world building, not buying, all in that photo. :D Happy to a part of it. These are the old farts answering 90% of the questions asked. :p

I was reluctant to suggest five guys and ten hands and the guy in the red shirt is feeling nuts.
Actually these guys may be a fashion cult with specific shirt, shorts and shoe fetish; OR maybe unevolved AI.

Thats a great picture. I just sold my ‘09 C6 with an LS3–bought it new in 2010 so kept it for longer than any other vehicle. Since it was my 3rd, after two ‘92s, this is the first time in 30 yrs I haven't had a vette :( I miss it but now I have the cash and space for another project :)

Hmm, Do I want to drive the car or have the car drive me today?
My thought as I open up my garage to those two cars.
