It’s Wednesday. It’s the holy grail of Corvettes: a 1967 L88 Corvette in Sunfire Yellow. This ultra-rare fully documented Corvette recently went on the auction block in Glendale, Arizona, and sold for $1,650,000! You can check out the excitement as it crosses the block in the video clip featured above.

This Sunfire Yellow L88 Corvette is the only known 1967 Corvette L88 to have its original engine intact. This also the only original-motor C2 L88 to have earned multiple awards, including multiple NCRS Top Flights and the NCRS Duntov award, Bloomington Gold certification, and the MCACN Triple Diamond. The car was also part of Bloomington Gold’s 2018 L88 Explosion.

The car famously underwent a 10-year restoration before being offered for $3.95 Million by Corvette Mike back in December 2019, and it’s also known to be the only ’67 L88 offered from the factory wearing Sunfire Yellow.

It’s Tuesday. Since its debut at the 1964 Detroit Autorama, the Ridler is one of the country’s most prestigious automotive awards that concerns custom and hot rod car owners and builders. Given annually to an exceptional vehicle that falls under strict “never been shown before” guidelines, the folks who win this prize become members of a very elite group.

This year’s winner is the 1953 Chevrolet Corvette “Twelve-Air” created by Kindig-It Designs of Millcreek, Utah.

It’s Monday. A quick note to thank everyone who sent their condolences last Friday. It was nice hearing from so many of you. Thanks for all the kind words and support.

My weekend was pretty low key. Spent Saturday with my Mom. And Sunday the girlfriend and I took a drive down to central Illinois to spend the day with her family. We got back home just in time to watch the Oscars. I missed the Nascar race in Phoenix, but they’ll have another race out there at the end of the season. And that was it, the weekend was over.

The next couple days will involve more family obligations. On the positive side, at least it’s supposed to warm up significantly over the next several days. That’ll be nice.
