Chevelle stories from a Corvette man

by R.J. Schmieder

As you may have gathered from some of my other Pros in the Know, I’m a Corvette man. This goes back to my high school days. I got my love for Chevrolets from my Dad and have been loyal to the brand over the years– having strayed only a few times along the way.

A lot of people in this industry are aware of my life-long love affair with America’s favorite sports car. Even though I work with the many other brands that Eckler’s represents, I’m mostly known as “the Corvette guy”. It only makes sense– they’ve been an integral part of my life both personally and professionally.

So, personally and professionally speaking, I’m not going to tell you the Corvette is the best car ever built, but it’s gotta be darn close. The car has grown with the times, and has gone from being “good” to “outstanding”– especially when you consider today’s state-of-the-art C7.
