I'm sorry but those are Corvettes. Vets are guys who risked their lives for their country. Some came home in pretty bad shape too. Corvettes. Chevrolet Corvettes. For the same reason you don't call a horse, a hor.

Oh for gosh's sakes, take it easy. A little typo and you completely over-react.

I've been calling them Vets since the 50's AND I'm a Vet from the 60's and still call them a Vet

Well I'm a vet too and was drafted in the 60's. But I left with a sense of humor and it is because I play with little cars (build a few too) and I used to take all of you burr-heads who can't pronounce a two syllable word and take you behind the barracks and make you do K.P. Order you to wash the dishes.

Hey...I can tolerate a butt whuppin' behind the shed, but doing dishes is too much to ask!

This begs the question: How many Vets for Vettes are there? -answer

Well, maybe it should be Vettes for Vets!

Answer: google says 6790!

The next Vettes 4 Vets is in Texas on April 11! Grin

That's a very nice looking machine. Did you put the seats in?

I did John! half the interior was red when I bought it, inluding the Corvette sports seats, so I converted it all back to black, and installed the Corbeau seats.

I kept the original seats and will order all black leather covers for them, just in case I ever want to sell the car.

The original owner liked red.
