Still in great shape. It was drag raced about once a month (his family owns a strip up in Michigan) and garage-kept and babied.

I'll take pics when I can. He's keeping it hidden right now until he can get it properly insured and buy an automotive shop to put it in and work on it.

what we DIDN'T know was that it's also an L88... one of only 20 made

It's like a $750,000 car, y'all.... or MORE.... OMG

I've got someone running the VIN to triple-check but-- we are just like... wow. now WTF do we do with it!?

Sounds awesome... and BTW you know you have to pay inheritance taxes on that. Best of luck to ya.

it wasn't actually left to anyone in the will; he just told Rich to take it. I work for a lawyer so I think we can get around it

That's so insane; I wish we didn't have DST, but it doesn't seem to make sense for only one or two states to not have it and be off from the rest of the country, don't you think?

yeah and here all the cable tv shows change. so something that was on at 6pm last week is on at 5pm this week. every six months you have get used to it again.

Who needs a V8 Camaro when you have a Stingray?
