Criswell Chevrolet’s Mike Furman delivers new Corvettes to his customers who come from all across the country to work with the nation’s top individual Corvette seller.
Thanks again for joining us on this fine afternoon. It feels like a Sunday morning, but the clock suggests otherwise as we skipped ahead an hour last night. Mike puts the spotlight on a Red Mist Z06 delivery and then shares some great throwback and vintage photos for your scrolling pleasure. Let us know your favorites below. This week I am partial to the young lady holding the sunflowers…
You can see all of Mike’s posts and pictures through the week on his CorvetteFurman Facebook Page.
~This month, March 28th-April 4th I will be in Pahrump, Nevada for 3-4 full classes of my Corvette clients from all over the globe for the Ron Fellows Spring Mountain Corvette owners school. I’ve stayed in touch with Ron Fellows and he will be flying in to join me and my customers for another fantastic week. This will also be the very first Eray owners school and Keith Cornett, the Corvette Blogger is in that class as he bought his Hysteria Purple Eray from me. I’ve been hosting my customers for their classes for 11 years, twice per year and approx 120 of my Corvette customers/clients/friends each year! Since 2008 I’ve attended 43 classes at Spring Mountain and this is one private driving course that you must experience first hand. Touch base with Brooke Bailey for further class info and if you need some Corvette swag, look up their Pro shops web site, ShopSpringMountain.com
~Pat Boone has been an iconic Pop Singer since the 50’s, he even hosted The Pat Boone Chevy Showroom on CBS! He also teamed up with Dinah Shore for many Chevrolet commercials and new Chevrolet model introductions. I can hear the jingle now, “See the USA in your Chevrolet.”
But…did you know he was great friends with Malcolm Konner the Chevrolet dealer based out of Caldwell and then Paramus, NJ from 1962-1995. Mr. Konner arranged to personally deliver Pat Boone’s new fuel injected Ermine White 1960 Corvette to Pat’s Teaneck, NJ home and brought along his sales manager Skip Sofield and the Chevrolet area zone mgr for pictures. Mr Konner can be seen awarding Pat Boone a plaque from the New Jersey Sports car Club (founded by Malcolm Konner). These pictures were gifted to me by Gary Konner many years ago. I thought this would be a good way to share this little bit of Corvette history from the Malcolm Konner past.
~Glenn A. of Arizona has been following my Corvette delivery posts for years, even ordered his own C8 from me. Glenn sends me his creative artwork from time to time and I’m much appreciative as I have none of his computer talent. Enjoy his artistry in the pictures below and the video in the comment section.
~John and Ann of Hyattsville, Maryland are former Mustang people and they sold their C6 Corvette so that they could order their new Red Mist Metallic Tintcoat 2025 Corvette Z06 coupe! Yesterday was raining so we switched their delivery appt today and warmer weather, Spring and the clocks changing this weekend spells all good news for their new Z06! Equipment: 3LZ, Red stitching, black interior, visible carbon fiber rooftop, body color accents, bright red calipers, engine spec plaque, black spider design wheels and much more!
