After finishing college, Larry and Judy Reichenbach got married in August of 1964. Larry had recently purchased a 1958 Corvette. He was forced to rebuild the transmission the night before (and the day of) their wedding. They got it done in time to take it on their honeymoon, but it had a number of problems during the time they owned it, so they traded it in for a different car. With a lasting fondness for the earlier Corvette, a co-worker offered a 1959 Corvette to Larry for purchase, which he purchased in 1971. Carefully restoring it, Larry returned it to like-new condition in 1980. This became Judy's favorite car. They went to car shows, and as the family came along, they continued to do so. Years later, Larry restored the car a second time, and to this day it maintains a beautiful appearance.
