I just felt like taking some more pictures since the leaves were changing, so I got my dad to bring his '61 Corvette out for something different. My four-year-old came, too. It was actually a fun day.

Also, here's my son at the Halloween Trunk-or-Treat thing at church ...

... and here he is helping clean things up.

The end.

Thanks! My dad bought that when I was five-years-old. Here I am with it:

30-years later, and he still has it. It's probably more original than my truck, including the paint and spare tire. He actually drives it quite a bit, too. Here's my son and me at the Goodguys show last year:

That old Corvette is kind of a member of the family.

olsofti · 11-04-2008, 12:01 PM

Wouldn't it be great to see your son and his child 30 years from now in that pic?

Revoh, nice job. Good to see you at the Midwest All Truck Nationals.

Awesome pics. I wish my dad would finish his 58 'Vette so I could do some of the same with it.
