This is truly a unique episode of CORVETTE TODAY!

I had the pleasure of meeting David Smitheram from the UK recently. David owns a well-traveled red C6 coupe that he named Clive the Corvette.

Clive has literally been all over the world. He has made frequent trips to America where he has been on the Tail of the Dragon, the Grand Canyon, Route 66 and more. But Clive has been places that most of us only dream of. Clive has been to the Arctic, Africa, Spain and all over Europe.

As a result of David's travels with Clive, he has also written 4 children's books about Clive's travels. Clive has also been the the National Corvette Museum and the NCM Michelin Bash and the Motorsports Park! As a matter of fact, Clive's book about his trip to the US is sold at the Corvette Store at the National Corvette Museum.

You'll be amazed at David's story of how he found Clive, purchased him and took him on his many adventures. Meet Clive The Corvette and David Smitheram, up close and personal, on this episode of CORVETTE TODAY.
