Default The Big Two Five!!

My Wife and I celebrated our "Silver" Anniversary today. I got her a few Silver Necklace's, and she got me something I've had my eye on for a long time. A 1963 Sliver/blue Split Window Corvette.
I've been looking at it for over 2 years now, (nearly once a month) but just couldn't bring myself to spend that much money for another "Toy". Still I really wanted to add it to my collection, and she said you only go around once in life, so you might as well enjoy yourself while you can.
Funny, she said the same thing just before I decided to buy my Viper.

Thanks for all the good wishes guys, it's amazing how fast 25 yrs. can slip by.
As for a scoop on the 63 hood, well a 67 "Stinger" hood would go right on. But with the split window, what else do ya really need.
Actually I did offer to trade my Viper for a beautiful "small block" 65 Sting Ray coupe that somebody here on the forum owns, but my offer was turned down.

Not too many seem to get to 25 years anymore. If you think the first 25 went quick wait for the next 25. We're at 44 years and counting.

Congratulations +fireamx

Also congratulations on your restraint with dnr LOL

Congrats! If I can tolerate one for more than 25 days I consider it an accomplishment

Mom and dad just celebrated 37 years last November... I admire the dedication
