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 this glorius Sunday morning. Mike has an action-packed delivery post all teed up for us, and he included more than a few of his deliveries from the last week. Also, make sure you stick around for the throwback and vintage pics for the week. My favorite is the GM worker in St. Louis installing the rear fuel door on a 1963 Corvette Split Window Coupe. Do you have a favorite? Let us know in the comments below!
You can see all of Mike’s posts and pictures through the week on his CorvetteFurman Facebook Page.
October 13th, 1962. Carroll Shelby rolls out his V8-powered, AC-bodied roadster with one goal: to win at Riverside, California. Bill Krause, at one time an F1 hopeful, was at the wheel of the one Shelby Cobra. But there was a serious obstacle for Shelby and Krause, namely, several Chevrolet Corvettes with tenured pilots. Most notably, Bob Bondurant, Doug Hooper, Dave MacDonald, and Jerry Grant hit the track in the Corvettes. Ultimately, it was Hooper who won the race in one of the Chevrolet Corvettes!
~The Cobras must have been impressive. Bob Bondurant, Dave MacDonald, and Jerry Grant were soon to be Shelby American drivers.
~6:30am 10/18/25~Saturday is my Super Bowl. Folks fly in from all over the US of A to drive home in a brand new Corvette…many for the very first time. The excitement is as crisp as the morning air come Fall season. Stay tuned!
~Plycar trucking…since August 2009 to present day I refer my clients and 10-15 Corvettes per mos get loaded up for their enclosed trip to their respective homes across the US of A. Today I received a close up look at two incredibly rare Ford GT’s making the trip West. The white 1966 Ford GT Mark I and the Red 1967 Mark IV. Total value for the two is in the 10 million dollar range. I’d say that’s good company for my Iowa customers 2026 Z06 Convertible…along with the Blue Aston Martin down below!
I certainly can appreciate the beauty of the lines on these two rare GT’s…not Corvettes and that’s OK.
~ C8 Corvette Deliveries for the Week!
~R of Texas bought 5 brand new Corvettes and 2 new Tahoes from me when he resided in New Jersey. He moved to Texas and decided to trade in his 23 Z and factory ordered a Red Mist 2026 Corvette Z06 convertible, Corvette #6 that he has bought from me. All his NJ deliveries he made sure to bring me bagels and cannolis. Now that he lives in Texas he sent me a Stetson hat, what a beauty too! I helped him negotiate with his local Texas BMW dealer for a new BMW SUV. Glad to help. Plycar trucking loaded his new Z06 this past Sunday and should arrive any day now.
Equipment:3LZ, stealth interior trim, front lift, edge red, black exhaust tips and much more.
~Dan M. of Bloomfield Hills, Michigan found me on the internet and he factory ordered a Black 2026 Corvette Z06 Convertible with Asymmetrical racing stripes and seats. Competition seat for the driver and GT2 bucket for the passenger. Plycar trucking loaded his Z06 on Sunday afternoon and Dan received it today. Equipment: 3LZ, stealth interior trim, front lift, Carbon ceramic brakes, bright red calipers, and much more. This Z06 is stunning from every angle.
~Clark and Allyson S. of Longmont, Colorado was referred to me by their local dealer in Loveland, CO and last night they took Courtesy delivery of their brand new Black 2026 Corvette ERAY Convertible. I had it drop shipped to the Chevrolet dealership in Loveland and Steve handled their delivery flawlessly as he has done many for me in the past. This was the 2nd courtesy delivery Steve in Loveland has done for me this week! Clark and Allyson ordered custom interior option code R6X, Black with Sky cool gray seats.

In Joloni’s survey:”
“I received EXCELLENT service from Mike Furman!!! He was honest and didn’t even take a deposit until he had the allocation and ordered my 2026 Corvette Z06. He set me up with courtesy delivery in Colorado and made everything as easy as possible for me. His sales managers Bobby Linthicum, and Jason Witte were also helpful and available to answer all my questions every step of the way. The Business MGR Wyman Chow was exceptional as well coordinating the signing via FedEx and setting me up with my extended service warranties and making my purchase via wire. Criswell has an exceptional team, and I will definitely refer Mike Furman to anyone looking to purchase a new or used corvette!!!” Joloni W. Colorado
~#6,751 Corvette delivery(+8,000 others) went to my Nebraska customer Bob F…He certainly is not afraid of driving as within the last 22 months that he owned the 2024 Z06 that bought from me he put on just a few miles shy of 20,000 miles. I was the lucky recipient of all his great travel pictures and he even drove to Spring Mountain racetrack in Pahrump, Nevada to meet up with me for his Corvette Z06 owners school. Bob and I first met at the Corvette Bash in Bowling Green, KY back in April 2015. Here are Bob’s words that he included with last weeks travel pics as he drove home with his Grandson in his new Riptide Blue 2026 Z06.
Mike,
“Another smooth Corvette transaction in the books. There is a good reason why this was your 6,751st sale of Corvettes. I drive by hundreds of Chevrolet Dealerships to buy my Corvette from you. Your knowledge of Covettes is second to none. You do more then sell Corvettes. You sell ear to ear smiles and memories to everyone who buys a Corvette from you. Everytime I drive a new Corvette from your dealership I am smiling because I am driving a great car and I have a 1900 mile road trip staring me in the face! Thank you Mike for all you do! We will do it again in two years.”
Bob F. Of Morrill, Nebraska
~Nolan C. of Florence, South Carolina has ordered new Corvettes from me in the past so he knew the drill putting together his Competition Yellow 2026 Corvette Coupe with Adrenaline red interior. He drove a one way rental up from SC this morning and drove home in Corvette style. Equipment:1LT, transparent roof, red calipers, Stingray R pkg, midnight gray with red stripe wheels, CF high wing spoiler and much more.
~Tommy M. of Chadds Ford, PA was referred to me by one of my really good PA customers. Tommy factory ordered a Red Mist 2026 Corvette Z06 Coupe with two tone Natural/Black interior.

Nothing more disgusting than a Mudshark. What a disgrace to her family.
Mr. Furman Sir,
I love your Throw Back photos. I grew up with all the generation of Vette’s and you make my heart race every time I see a ’56/57. I currently have a 2017 Z06 and feel the C7 design will forever be judged as the best of the front engine Vette’s. The kid in me still remembers when the ’57 came to the show room. Oh man what a visual masterpiece. Thanks
Thanks for all the great pictures brings back lots of memories!
My favorite is the purple C4 Callaway Corvette Speedster.
My favorite is the smile on the face of the PANAM Hostess face in the drivers seat of the red ’63 Stingray Coupe under the tail of the PANAM airliner.
Zora and John Fitch, 2 legendary Corvette racing powerhouses, Rest In Peace Gentlemen !!!
Mike, Good morning! My favorites this week, the purple Callaway Speedster, the ’84 & the brick wall and Bob Seger! By the way, thanks for the acknowledgement in assisting with your 2 courtesy deliveries in my home state of Colorado. It is always my pleasure!
Steve Reese / Davidson-Gebhardt Chevrolet
My favourites this week include the maroon ’65 or ’66 pulling the small travel trailer, the Grand Sport on the dock in Nassau, and the funky paint job on the light blue C3!
My 2024 Corvette has 6000 miles had the air conditioning. Go out The transmission doesn’t shift properly, and the connectivity isn’t allowing a hotspot. It’s been in the dealership for 60 days and GM is not standing behind it. Don’t buy a new Corvette.
