Just Delivered

[dpartn]

Quick pic before it goes into the heated garage for the foreseeable future. KR770 in performance blue. Received her about a week ago. Though I apparently had a choice when the Russian individual delivered her. There was a 1963 split window Corvette in the trailer as well. Driver asked which one did I want? A bit disconcerting given I had to meet the carrier at an old abandoned gas station out in the sticks because he said he lost my address. He didn't ask for my ID. Simply a 'which one do you want? and pay me.' Great guy to be carrying a pair of cars worth a couple hundred grand (estimated the vette to be worth at least 125k in the shape it was in). But I picked the one that I thought was best. Still, funny that even the extremely well rated brokers still will often let a carrier of dubious reputation do the freight. But all worked out and it arrived without a scratch. Now I just need to get my bad back used to those Ricaros!

Sounds like he had a good sense of humor. I’m sure he knew which one went where.

Nice colour. That story reminds me of my delivery when the driver said to me " yours is the McLaren, right ? "

Mine is KR776. Love your color, that was my 2nd choice

I would like to think this also. But this guy was truly on the clueless side and when I got a call from the dispatcher (who was probably the driver's wife for all I could figure), she asked if I got my Vette and it wasn't said with any implied humor. This guy should have had a contract from the broker, but since he had to ultimately call me due to not having my address as it was 'lost', I feel they were truly clueless. Just glad it worked out.

Sweet ride there! Red was my second pick as my local dealer had one. But they also weren't offering me their R for $5K under MSRP like the dealer where I bought my blue did.
