OCTOBER 2003

 

Owner: Rochelle (Rocky) Schramke
I bought the car used in 1994
and it was pretty rough. Plain white,
red interior, bald tires,
the whole sha-bang!
I paid around $9000.00 for it.
In '99 it was time for a rebuid
(at 100.000 miles) and I wanted
something different so my husband
Dennis rebuilt the motor and repainted it.
I put in new interior. The paint design
is my own custom idea and the colors
are because I'm an incurable patriot!
It has been all over the U.S. and my
biggest "Claim to Fame" is the trip
I made with the
"Stars and Stripes Across America".
We traveled from Washington State
to NY carrying U.S. flags and raised
money for rescue dogs loston 9-11.
I produced a video and poster
of the event. I also have an article
published about the trip in
Corvette Fever Magazine.
(November 2002) This year it was
time once again for a rebuild but
Dennis decided to go "New". It now
has a 2003 350, 330HP, straight
from GM. She screams! It will be
in my life forever, never to be sold.
It is willed to my 4year old
granddaughter, Keira Rochelle,
pictured in the "interior" photo.

Sincerely, Rochelle (Rocky) Schramke
