Yes, this is
my "Retirement Toy". A 2000, bright, shiny, new, magnetic
red, Corvette convertible. When I started working at Ford back in
'62, I had
a
1961 Jewel Blue Corvette convertible, so it only made sense to get
another one when my career ended there. I originally thought of
getting a restored '61 "Toy", however, I soon discovered it
would cost me almost
as much as a new one. And with a
new one, I would get all the bells and whistles--and
believe me, there are plenty of those! After waiting
three
months for delivery, there
wasn't
much time to enjoy it until I had to garage
it
for the Michigan winter.
In 2002, we
moved to the South to enjoy a warmer climate. Now I drive my
"Toy" every day . What joy! |
