Any fellow Corvette owners?

Post by cal45 »

My 1st was bought new back in 1983 ('82 leftover) while dating my wife...fast forward 26 years (married/kids/career) - 2nd was a 2003 purchased in 2009. Sold that one in '12 and now 6 years later, just purchased (in June) a 2013 60th Anniversary Edition Grand Sport Coupe that will most likely be my last (unless I win the Lottery).

It's a '57. My Dad bought back in '68 for $850. VIN indicates it's a fuelie, but right now she has a 383 stroker.

I have a 2013 as well. 1st and may be last one I own. I’ve contemplated getting a newer one several times, just can’t ever get around to parting with it.

Thanks, tried to keep it simple but make it a little more agressive looking.

Used to have an '05 C-6.
Wonder4ful car. Convertible.
Best mad was a set of Corsa Sports.

Loved that car but as my back got worse it wasn't practical.

Now it's a 5.0 Mustang. Nowhere near as much fun.
