Well the time finally came, this morning I put the Z06 that I have owned for 42+ years on the transported to Scottsdale. I had a hard time during the final drive on to the lift and up the ramps. The driver saw that I was still in love with this car so he bent company rules and let me drive it all the way on the trailer.
The car looked ready for one final show, I put on the orginal tires, cleaner up the under carriage, put on the original shock absorbers, waxed up the paint and sent him on his way. The next time I will see him is at Barrett Jackson. I will get to spend the last week with my friend of 42 years before parting company one last time. I hope who ever buys the car will have as much enjoyment as I did and I hope he cares as much for the car as I did.
Life goes on but I know it will hard every time I see the empty space in my hangar, I just know this is the right time to part ways. My old bones just are not up to the care he deserves.
I will be selling my parts collection over the next few months, I have started complying a list, email me if anyone is interested in getting a copy.
