2000 CORVETTE CONVERTIBLE

This car is not an anniversary or collector edition, nor does it hold any special meaning for GM. It is, however, my one and only favorite.

This beauty was given to Mrs. Leonard Rydell in Wickenburg, Arizona in January 2000 for a 60th Wedding Anniversary gift. It was presented to her in front of some dealers Leonard helped get started in the automobile industry and that made for an extremely special event.

As of 2003, Leonard Rydell has helped a “few dealers” grow to over 60 dealers across the United States.

I personally thank Leonard Rydell and Ivan Gandrud for my success in the “car business” and I dedicate this car in Leonard’s memory, as he passed away in the winter of 2001.

Leonard, we all loved and admired your ability to sell and service the most important assets of being successful - your people and your customers.

ONE OF A KIND
