Should have said ’75. For reasons unique to California’s highly legislated world view, cars made after 1975 must have their original emissions hardware. There are a lot of reasons why that is stupid, but ignoring the idiocy for a moment, my ’77 isn’t equipped with the proper hardware.

Blah!

So I am now getting a ’75 Vette!

This particular car is silver with an ox blood red interior. Very ’70s. The last owner spent 10 years and $20k restoring it, but when it arrived the interior was a wreck. So now my car is sitting in a shop being put back together. Ack.

I still hope to one day actually be able to drive a corvette I’ve paid for, but I has been 3 weeks since the latest one arrives and it still isn’t in my drive way.

My brother just picked up this rockin’ 1977 Corvette for me. Needs a new interior, but is otherwise in awesome shape. It will be two months or so until I get it, but I am really thrilled.

Stumbled across a video on YouTube that was the movie I watched up late one night on USA’s Night Flight that ultimately led me to make Popularity.

One of my other web sites is a toy web site dedicated to paying tribute to the toys I loved as a kid. Just added some neat stuff I found at a show including some Buck Rogers, Battlestar Galactica and Zeroid toys. But the über cool toy is a Batman Executive Desk set.
