It’s Friday! That was a long week for me. I’m relieved that it’s over and I’m looking forward to a do-nothing weekend. Maybe even a boring weekend. That would be nice. Oh, wait—there’s St. Patrick’s Day on Sunday. My step-dad is a proud Italian, but he makes a killer corned beef. So I think my Sunday will involve Nascar, beer, and a belly full of really tasty corned beef.

It’s Friday again so let’s get right to it. I have a new amateur photo to share with all of you today. And then there’s the double babes & double jokes. Sounds like a great way to wrap up the week, eh? I thought you’d agree… enjoy!

It’s Thursday. We buried my aunt yesterday. It was an unusually beautiful mild day that started with a private service for her and close family. After that was the Funeral Procession out to the Abraham Lincoln Cemetery where she was put to rest with her husband who passed away roughly 20 years ago. I was doing fairly well after we arrived until the three pipers began playing Amazing Grace on bagpipes. That was hard. We wrapped it up later in the afternoon with a lunch at a local restaurant.

If there’s anything good to come out of this, it was seeing cousins, friends, and other family members that came in from near and far. It was great seeing everyone over this past several days, some of which I hadn’t seen in many, many years. A bittersweet experience. And the older I get, the more frequent these experiences are likely to be. Not sure if I’m ready for this.

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.
