What would I do with it and where would I get an oil change for jt? Plus, my Missuses has blossomed these few years. I don’t know if she can get in it to make it to the Dollar General for my Geritol and Cherry pop tarts. She likes those Dollar Wise cheese puffs. Otherwise I’ll stick with our ‘09 Rondo LX. We had it tru-coated so it should be ok.
Is anyone going to seriously drive this? It is a nice car. It doesn’t appear to have seat belts unless they’re squished under the seats. I believe seat belts in ‘66 were a factory installed option. I recall seeing a build sheet for my grand mother’s Impala and she laid $15.00 for that option.
the Seat Belts are on the console .. see the picture !!!!!
Oh. My bad. You are correct. They are camouflaged and my eyes are getting crappy as I age well into my ‘80s. I have the same condition as that lady in the commercial who drives that orange Mustang knock off.
Anyway, that’s a relief. When I win this and give it to my 16 year old daughter to drive, she will be safe.
Love love love the new Corvette! Keep up the great work guys…
