"Most of my Corvettes have been convertibles... Although I loved the lines of my 2015 coupe, this is a car that truly looks like it's going a hundred miles per hour standing still! With my coupe, I missed the ease and convenience of a convertible! With the ability to lower the top up to 30 mph and very quickly, I can now do it whenever the feeling hits me!

Sometime during  the first couple of months of ownership, I decided to turn TWEETY B into a tribute to Corvette Racing, specifically, the #3 Car driven by Jan Magnussen and Antonio Garcia. You see, when I took my 2015 Coupe to COTA (the Circuit of the Americas) for the IMSA TUDOR Race, my car was selected by Jan Magnussen as his favorite! So naturally when I bought my convertible, it should be a tribute to him and the #3!"

Do You Attend Any Shows?

"I attend a lot of shows - open shows and Corvette Only shows!!  I love hanging out with fellow Corvette folks because they always exhibit new ideas for future mods and improvements! 

I am a member of the  largest Corvette club in Texas for sure - Lone Star Corvette Club - with over 1,000 members. A great way to meet folks, find folks with similar Vette interests whether it be drag racing, cruising, autocrossing, long trips, etc.  We have the BEST car show every year in May at the Texas Motor Speedway with proceeds going to our designated charities. One other thing I would like to mention to Corvette owners (probably for any car make or model), Facebook groups are a great way to get information about your car, diagnosing problems, solving issues.  The folks following those pages have seen it all! Some of the biggest and best include Bad Boy Vettes, Outlaw Vettes, Xcelerate Vettes, Mojo Vettes, Simply Corvettes - just to name a few! When there are thousands of followers, SOMEONE has certainly experienced (and probably solved) your issue! Check out the Facebook groups."

Has Tweety B won any awards or trophies? 

"I have won a number of trophies. A couple that were special include the one I mentioned from Jan Magnussen and then last year, Wil Cooksey, former Plant Manager at Bowling Green, selected my car as his favorite at the 22nd Anniversary of the Museum "Truly Race Inspired" was his comment."

Are you a customer of ours? If so how was your experience and what did you purchase?

"I sure am!   I would parrot most of your Customer Support, I suspect.  Great folks to work with. I am fortunate enough to live relatively close to WindResrictor so I visited, saw all you had to offer and met the nicest folks."
