Grace turned twelve today. I took her out for a short while (it's been unusually cold for the last few days in the Philadelphia area) but we did get a chance to "drive her in anger" when it was significantly warmer last weekend. At 43,674 miles, she's still the car that makes me smile the most. |

so this is what happens... you get three Vette's and a couple of winter beaters... leaving all three Vette's with low mileage and in perfect condition.
Anyone want a beat up 92 with 204k miles? |

Happy Birthday, Grace! I still get a hankering for one of those whenever I see one - I remember drooling over a new one on the showroom floor.

I suspect Louis needs a good detailing after the cross country drive. I was hoping that with GM upping the appearance of quality in the interior would also up the durability of the interior... I would say 76k on an 85 is, by definition, low miles. That's about 2500 a year for 30 years!!! Louis is close to normal, really. 10k a year is good. And Grace is is also at about 2500 a year. My 92 is at about 10k a year. |
