Corvette Delivery Dispatch with National Corvette Seller Mike Furman for May 3rd


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.

Mike has some great new and old Corvette photos tee’d up on the green for us this Sunday and we think you’ll approve of this week’s Dispatch! We get to see a Torch Red Stingray Coupe delivered to the dealership while a Shadow Gray Coupe finally reaches its new owner down in Kansas. Over in Oregon our friend John from the MECF sent Mike more pics of his Black Z51 Coupe with the High Wing as it was being worked on at the detailer’s shop. For this week’s classic and vintage round-up, Mike shares a few more photos of Zora Arkus-Duntov and his wife Elfi Duntov.

Visit Mike’s facebook page for even more photos and videos of his new Corvette deliveries: CorvetteFurman.

For you aftermarket exhaust enthusiasts, we’ve got a Friday soundtrack just for you!

I first met Joe Fabiani of Fabspeed Motorsports at the East Coast Reveal of the 2020 Corvette at Kerbeck last August. As a McLaren driver, he was very excited about the new car and told us how his shop had big plans for the mid-engine Corvette. And now that the car has arrived, we are starting to see the fruit of their labors.
