Hey--I won a Corvette!

[redneckcowdoctor]

Got a call at 11:30 last night from a local radio station. I won a 2003 Corvette in a drawing. I stuffed an entry in while grocery shopping a few weeks back. Never won anything in my life (of course I throw out sweepstakes forms and don't buy ticketes which doesn't help my odds). My wife and the three of my kids old enough to have licenses are already making time-shares. I'm figuring on selling it, paying the taxes, and using whats left to pay some college tuition. My rides already "cool" enough! Jeff

lucky you... the most i have ever won was $50 with one of those "look under the cap" contests that pepsi had back when the 1st new starwars came out [99 i think]. the cheque that they sent me was pretty cool. it was a 8.5"x11" sheet like a poster that had the cheque on the bottom 1/4 of the sheet..

Hey Doc:

Congrats! Seems a shame not to use the car for business, you know, Vet in a Vette...could make for some speedy farm calls (but where in the world would you stick the "come-along?").

I don't suppose they make a Bowie Box for that car yet, but you could have bragging rights for the prototype ;) .

Wow!! Congrats!
Be sure to test all performance parameters multiple times before you sell.

If it were me I would also go someplace deserted and practice some of those emergeny manuvers you see on TV.
I have done the old spin the Limo in reverse thing many times with different vehicles.
My 79 Caprice was great for that. A buddy lived at the end of a long straight road. Drive in....
I freaked alot of friends that way.


:D

Wow, you are a lucky fellow. Only thing better would be to have won a 2003 GMC duramax!

Seriously though, if you want to legally offset taxes and still receive some cash, give me a call. I run a car donation program for my local Rotary club foundation and have some suggestions for you.
