Is this cool or what? Adams Polishes is using Gary's vette for advertising their products.
Congrats Gary, that's quite an honor and well deserved I might add!

Why would they want that riced-out POS in their adds?

Huh? Looks like it's just reflecting the blue sky, clouds, and maybe a light pole or smething. I don't see any discoloration.

exactly..this was not a studio shot, you can see the trees in the black background which they faded out...they should have had this taken in a studio using a nice soft whitebox setup..wondering if they just asked for a photo and they added the other graphics...

Thanks guys and you to Jim

My car is sponsored by Adam's and I'm an Adam's dealer but, this still came as a complete surprise to me Still can't believe it

The pic they used is one I took during the Corvette Enthusiasts photo shoot last year at Carlisle.

Sean, yes I have been stopped for the tag, several times

I was in Gloucester last weekend chatting about cars with a friend and he said something about front tags. He brought your name/car up and it made me wonder if you have ever been stopped.

I honestly think you get pulled over based on pure 'curiosity' of the car.
