Picking up a Z....
Sold my FRC back in February with the intention of purchasing a Z06 at some point later on this year. I was fortunate enough to start shopping a little earlier, but missed on a couple of deals. My wife and I decided that an "Orange" Z06 is what we would like in the stable. My father has owned a 69 Monoco Orange L89 big block car since 1977, and an "Orange" Z will make a great companion to it.
It all changed over the weekend and I am flying out Monday morning and picking up this beauty.
Car has great history and a super low VIN number, which makes it special for me.
Its an 07 with 22k one owner miles. Have a 650 mile trip ahead of me, which is going to be great to get acquainted with the car.
Have a bunch of crappy pics, so I picked the best one.
Car has intake, tune and mild to wild. I have a bunch of LED's, a catch can, lowering bolts and a set of 20 X 10 and 20 x 13 iForged Imolas pictured below.

WOW, can't wait to see the wheels on the car, please post some pics when they are on. Great ride, enjoy.
Success seems to be largely a matter of hanging on after others have let go.
